Avian Punks Go for Broke | Passer domesticus

Two rebellious songbirds full of nervous energy,
unlikely hybrids of wind and delirium,
avian punks go for broke without brakes,
a knockout with no chance to catch a breath.

  2. Oops, Ellen has a dutch keyboard enabled, maybe? Happens to me too on an iPad:) Rick, amazing how you freeze moments, still showing the speed yet heads are still sharp. Expert linguistics to match! Posted 13 years ago
  3. Thanks very much Ludo. Actually, I don't understand what Ellen is referring to by "THE Thimbu". Posted 13 years ago
  4. Well, Rick, I am sure it is not dutch either, but the name suggests she is (as am I). When typing on a mobile device with intelligent language correction this is typical behaviour:) She likes your picture, that is for sure! THE Thumbu is maybe 'The photo' in a very sick intelligent correction scheme:) Posted 13 years ago
