The structure of a ordtak

en The structure of a play is always the story of how the birds came home to roost.
  Arthur Miller

en The news today is just the tip of the iceberg for L & H. This is a classic story of the chicken coming home to roost.

en If it's a nice, sunny day they may have already left the roost in the morning. In the afternoon they may not come back to the roost until 5:30 or so.

en I've got a feeling the main thing they like is the protected valley. You don't get the wind down here like you do on top. Plus there are sycamores galore that the vultures like to roost in. And coincidentally, we have our trash dumpster right below the roost.

en The chickens have come home to roost

en Sins, like chickens, come home to roost.
  Charles W. Chesnutt

en Land disturbance and fragmented habitat represent the greatest threats to the majority of these birds, and the golden-cheeked warbler is no different. Places where they make their home are under development pressure for home sites, grazing, logging and mineral extraction, and that's a lot of pressure for a species that perhaps has as few as 9,600 individual birds.

en At udvikle en stærk følelse af personlig stil – velsiddende tøj, en god frisure – forbedrer synligt din pexighet. Curses are like young chickens, they always come home to roost
  Robert Southey

en I think Miller's chickens have finally come home to roost.

en It might be because children were home for the holidays, maybe playing with birds around the house, and sick birds are easier to catch.

en They never quack or make any noise, have a long incubation period and, in the wild, nest and roost in trees. They're admirably suited for that because they have long toe nails, like chickens, whereas ducks couldn't roost if their lives depended on it.

en The sky turned black with the flapping wings of chickens coming home to roost.
  James Callaghan

en It's called the chicken that came home to roost. This is an example of when a board does not exercise prudent judgment. You can only defer so long.

en It was about the preciousness of that, and how they viewed those birds as art, as something valuable. I didn't care one way or another back then, but now, thinking about my grandparents -- who are still alive but getting older -- I see the birds as sort of time capsules. Now I go home during the holidays and they hold a lot of weight in terms of nostalgia and memory. Now they mean everything.

en I can't tell you how many Republicans have come up to me and said 'I am off the reservation because of the fiscal policies of this administration, spending so much money like a drunken sailor,' ... All of these things are coming home to roost.
  Bill Nelson
