Pretty Pigeon

hello alex! it’s catsz here to hopefully leave a good review! let’s dive into it!!!
pretty pigeon as the title is really thought provoking! the fact that they both start with the same letter, and it goes together really well is great!
hahahaha the pigeon attacking people for food xD
the description of the pigeons neck and bulgy eyes is really detailed!! love it.
gawk in strangers souls is a good way to put it xD for me it means some people are scared of pigeons!
ohh i like the subtle rhyming!
“gotta poop? midair looks nice” that cracked me up ToT it’s true they absolutely poop everywhere. sighh what a disgrace to pigeons society. must bring that to the courtroom.
oh how i WISH to fly!!! imagine how free it’ll feel. sometime si do want to be them, sometimes i don’t xD depends on the day!!
the poem is very lighthearted and humorous, i love this coming from you!! it’s unique like nothing you’ve ever written, and its overall a very funny poem!!!
Happy writing and Happy reviewing!!

This poem intrigued me, but I held off from reviewing it for a while. I have to say I really enjoyed it when I read it.

''Pigeons pretty pigeons
With bulging eye buttons
Gawk in stranger's souls''

I know for me whenever I look into a fish' eyes, I always feel some sort of creepiness, I don't know it might just be me. Birds are kind of like the same. Some animals always have black pupils and that sometimes freaks me out. And the fact that you added gawking into stranger's souls was so much better. But no matter the fact that soulless eyes are creepy, I like how you described the pigeons as pretty.

''Flock together in the endless sky
Not to risk getting left behind''

I've never seen birds who aren't ever together. Birds that flock together are like friendship goals to me.

''Attack the man with the grain
For he definitely has more''

I remember fondly as a child the time I went to the zoo during daycare. I hated seagulls so much and pigeons because of the stories my mom told me that they would attack me for food. At the zoo there were like 100 seagulls around me and some of the kids from my daycare were feeding them and taking some of their food. I feel like all birds do that and I really enjoyed the first line, ''attack the man with grain''. You could have simply said food, but I think grain fits the overall tone of this poem more.


''You run much faster than they
Do with their enormous legs
& it's not like they've got wings''

Wait, pigeons don't have wings? Maybe I'm misinterpreting that part.

Overall, a very gorgeous poem you created. I see under your related items you have other animal poems. I hope you keep writing poems such as thee!

This is an interesting poem, since well, it's meant to be a bit satirical and for-fun. It still kind of highlights how humans will want to be anything else, and blame anything else.

"How it must be to be a bird", when they forget what they are themselves, in an animals point of view.

There's one point in this poem that's especially interesting, the flocking together of birds, and not getting left behind. I think that's a very stark contrast to human life, in which you're left on your own, and encouraged to catch up to the flock somehow, when they're already hundred and thousands of miles ahead.

It also speaks of a very old thought - The one on how it is to be a bird, or rather, this 'free' feeling, of owning the sky, flying wherever you want to fly. It's funny, because we did just that, we practically conquered the sky with airplanes, and helicopters - But as we humans do, we always want more.

Hi! Great work! firstly, I like the talk of pigeons! not many people spend time to focus on them. I also like the use of an ampersand in the last paragraph! a few things, first, the lack of punctuation, and especially with one line being an exception, is a bit disorienting. other than that, great work! Keep writing!
