If you have a bird feeder with seeds a cardinal likes,
if he sees you, he will remember your face

and your voice as well.

He will watch you to make sure you are not a threat,
unlike how he perceives other humans as threatening,

and he might even come to your bird feeder when
you are nearby.

And isn’t it amazing that, for a bird, his intelligence is so high?

After he broke up with her,
tired of her crazy behavior,

she slept with his two best
friends to piss him off.

Her vengeance didn’t have
the intended effect.

He lost all respect for her,
got rid of his loser, best friends.

Eventually he found a stable
girlfriend

and a better life; she’ll soon
be his wife.

His ex is with one of his
former friends she slept with.

She torments and fights
with him most nights.

He wants to leave her, but
fears she’ll get revenge with

the gun she bought after
they had one of their fights.

After the doctors revived him from being
clinically dead, he was disturbingly different.

His appearance changed from friendly and harmless
to unfriendly and ominous,

as if he spent some time in hell,
and brought a bit of hell back with him.

Whatever the case, shortly after he came
back to the world of the living,

he shot his wife dead and took his own
life as well,

perhaps he was destined to go back to hell.
