A bird
a bird
churched
on the Absurd
hacking rhymes
like a sea wave of ants
crossing a hunger
tender redoubtable
belly insatiable
for plunder & bait.
Thunder swoons
along a listening arc
muzzled
to its lift
to the grammar grimoire
to the belle-lettristic.
These irreconcilable
cravings
annex the wing -
over and over
as love and death
does its thing.
