Out of the corner of my eye
A scuffle down by the fence
Who is it, who’s involved, I ask? Sir,
Sir, it’s McCartney and Bell: oh?
McCartney, scrawny, sleekit, smarmy
Bell, a 13yr. old version of ‘The Rock’
I decide not to intervene, let Nature
Take its course for a while. Actually
No! It’s two early morning Blackbirds
Kicking up a frosty Autumn leaf-pile
Harmoniously guddling, scuffling
Searching, sorting, snacking
I decide not to intervene, let Nature
Take its course for a while and marvel.
