INTRODUCING: BIRD BOY KNIT CAP - REPLICA BY Blackbird

THE BIRD BOY OF BALLARD

A poem by Jose Chacon

There once was a boy

Born under the ground

He lurked in the shadows

He never made a sound

With a nose like a beak

He believed he could fly

Draped in a black cloak

He decided to try

Walking on the bridge

Wings spread wide

A bleak gust of wind

A leap, and a bound

Down by the locks

The fisherman found

Poor little Bird Boy

He never made a sound
