The long queue at the feeder
Spirals up into the tree
Mostly orderly chirping
Until a fight breaks out
It's all about priority
And the status of the starving
And yet it feels convivial
A parade of fluttering
As if each one knew
They would be fed in time
More than enough to go around
As if they could subsist on these
Dead or dying seeds alone
