Ornithology

Leading bird hereabouts,
Pot-Bellied Skirtchaser.

If one of these entraps
a fledgling, can be hell

on wings for all snared in
the risible process. Specific

Old Romeo’s visible health shot
by haste & lies, & spread feathers

de-preened with daughter
crying “Daddy, how could you?
With that awful slut!” (Land-

mine! midst her wide&wooly sex-
uality. But, thought is wood for her

circle.) The Juliet on view dis-
covers biblically consecrated
lucidity within her confusion.

Wife, too, finds her own true love
from the whole grimy imbroglio:

Justice! She & Advocate con-
certing in vindictiveness.

Courts advance latter,
where tribes once
lopped off heads.

At any rate, hopping mess
in modern domestic sense.

& multiplying by thousands,
could we be better served, let’s

say, by a Devil’s Island for
marriage malefactors?

Then society could reserve
its energies for roads

& airport expansions. So,
all of us, too, breathing

easier over tea
& cookies.

Checking iPads
for the latest

iPad.
