YELLOW BIRD

Garage sailing saturday , Suburu on Lansing
Yellow canary right in the middle of roadway
Swerve to avoid.Return to see if damaged
As I walk towards,she hops then flirts upwards
to be among the pigeons resting nesting greentrees
Thought I -why?Look behind -large cat stalking
He streaks past -too late for feathers
I smile at the primal.Escape takes wings
This is not a metaphor.

FIRE ANTS
i like the determination of these imports
how they spread via Queens and Colonies
how all deterrents are temporary
they silent as iron will,build
when stepped upon,they protest
demonstrate with bite ,acid,panache
worthy of their name,and the boiling water criticisms
i add to their dominions.First -admire and respect
Next -kill them.
