Omen 5 , the fall of man

The hurricane Alex clouds came over us last night. I went outside to open the chicken coop and found one of our large fig trees had lost a big fruit laden top-heavy branch. Upon closer inspection I found a large bird nest that had already spilled out its contents. It was a fine nest strong and well built,only it was built on a top-heavy system ready to collapse from its own weight. Now a capitalizing artsy-craftsy type will pick up that nest for next to nothing,shellac it and sell it for a handsome profit at the craft fair. The common birds now displaced will wander aimlessly asking all the other common birds why nobody had warned them of the calamity.  A cold stare is all they will get for an answer as the common birds with nests fly off to their still standing homes. The displaced birds now without shelter will try to sleep in the branches of another tree that still stands where they will fall prey to the large owls that hunt at night. The fallen branch heavy with fruit will be picked clean by the lower elements of the food chain that come up from the lower earth.

    (in real life, no saving babies? or were they eggs..)
    back to allegory Cuckoos always sneak the care and raising onto the poor other gullible birdies.

  2. The committee would find this prophetic, poetic and sublime. Full of the melodrama's of life and the plot for a good movie preview of coming attractions. They just don't realize that they are the owls and lower elements in this production and as you know, they would never work for scale and would insist on top billing. Hmmm?

    I used to replace them when they fell from my trees. I don't think the original family ever moved back in but I did see a homeless or two take up residence.

    I have been praying for this storms direction. The omnipotent one has seen fit to send it to Mexico. I beleive what has been going on there with their government is worse than what we have seen here. But not for long!

    Hunker down and stay safe in your nest. You are in potentially unknown territory under certain committee SPP-BP-HAARP-NAU-NWO projects.
