Dude: I like it a lot!

There's rhyme at the end, but I also loved the grackles that go smack and repeating the hard "k" in beak, and the "u" sound in "thud" and "fluttering."

I think also about things hitting things. I often yell, "Don't hit me." - mostly to motorists or cyclists. My train hit a "trespasser" who "didn't make it." Another Caleb Turgess perhaps. I speculate, "Would you rather get hit be a train or an ice cream truck?"

Meanwhile, back in the glass house.

Could bird-window be suicide, like the cows:

    A spokesman for Network Rail said up to five cows had been killed, and confirmed they first received a report of livestock in the area at 8.50pm.
and from, time to time, the heart-broken dolphins?
