Encroachment

One evening after work, Broping in the mailbox

For messages, letters from nowhere.
my fingers encountered sprigs, twigs and eggs.
A bird had nested, right inside my mailbox.
Annoyed, 1 cleared it all, except for the eggs.
Later in the evening
A storm had me out
Hastily gathering ,clothes left drying.
In the garden, hopping ,in clumsy hurry ,was mainah
Balancing in its yellow beak
Twigs and slender sticks , heading for my mailbox
laboriously to rebuild , the cosy nest I had wrecked.
My vision blurred in the heavy showers
The message I had missed
Quite clearly I read
In the incongruous nest, Hidden in the wooden box.
A slow persecution
Through a deuding of its habitat
Leaving no room to nest

Except in wooden post boxes

Nailed to concrete walls
