A Total Farce. For Darryl.
Perched on a limb
High above the ground
Sat a little birdie
Looking all around
Peering down among the people
He cried with glee
I see a tiny breadcrumb
Just waiting for me!
Soon the little birdie
Flew to the ground
Pecked at the breadcrumb
But failed to look around.
Then one of the people
With a gleam in his eye
Stomped the little birdie
And watched him die.
The moral to this story
Is always look around
And never eat your dinner
Sitting on the ground.
