Sacred Bird Murmuration Object. Black oil on carved plaster.

bloodclots and bunnies 
and faces and gummies 
and car-lots and carnies 
and kumquats and armies,
and carnage and monies 
and starcharts and pansies 
and k-marts and tummies 
and cow-calves and worries,
and cleaners and bunnies 
and oysters and curries 
and bruise-marks and hot-teas 
and bedsores and Harleys,
and perfumes and bent-knees 
and heartbeats and sheep-fleece 
and warm-breeze and toasters 
and sardines and fungis,
and bedtimes and brandy 
and clock-hands and parties 
and fishes and gem-thieves 
and tickers and flame-trees,
and mustard and aunties 
and ballads and smarties 
and carrots and losers 
and bedsheets and blue-jeans,
and thick-smoke and gum-leaves and crackling and ponies 
and petrol and tea-leaves 
and tvs and wetdreams,
and birdies and bodies 
and blankets and shirt-sleeves
and sunshine and white-teeth 
and lollies and calm seas.
