Cathy, Hi... thank you very much - very helpful.

You most certainly do not offend me; your (and Fran's and John's) comments are very useful - precisely what I need to shape the work.

I was trying to use a certain cuteness which I had intended to be shattered by the final word "slaughtered" but seems I've not suceeded yet. I must think again.

I am curious on one thing, though:

"the birds getting revenge upon humans...but I don't think you want it read that way"

That was precisely what I did mean in the poem. All the prose I wrote was simply explaining how I arrived at that stage. The poem does not address those other issues. I am addressing them in different pieces (like the prose one from which an extract was taken, but not in this).

Emm.. puzzled now.. I suppose I just have to make the revenge less comical? Less cute?

Thanks Cathy... much appreciated.

James.
