Quisquilian Company - Immortal Bird

Ruinous animal

Drag yourself into the sea

Go quietly

Your voice scrapes at my patience

Agonizingly dense

A slow-witted nightmare

Peals of vapid noise

Erupting from a thoughtless hole

Beady-eyed and lurching

From one comfort to the next soft place

Gelatinous and idle

Utterly forgettable

Inconsequential

You have cursed

My line of sight

Lumbering into my path

Bleary-eyed and oblivious

Your lack of acuity

No longer astounds me

Sickened by your imbecilic energy

Puerile mess

Creeping in and infecting

What I value

Constant stream of distractions

I can replace you

With a lesser evil

I’ll choose to abandon

When you are alone

You can learn something

But I know you won’t

Your flaccid mind

Will always struggle

To connect

The simplest pieces
