noisy bird

theres a mockingbird on my street to be precise its perch is an electric post right in front of my house to a lot of people this is a good thing its repetoire of songs range from the sublime to the sweet but this bird is one rude neighbor it has no concept of time so at three oclock in the night its sweet songs are more like fingernails on a blackboard i dont want to know what a cardinal or meadowlark sounds like at three in the morning i want quiet this goes on all summer i have contiplated buying a pellet gun and learn to shoot or a slingshot the cats around here kill a lot of birds but they never seem to get any mockingbirds they are like wiley coyote and he,s like the roadrunner well it could be worse he learn scat or rap if that bird start useing the b_word or the n_word then i,ll get a real weapon and lock and load on him.birds are nice but tweet tweet at three am uh uh
