MOCKING BIRD






MOCKING BIRD


Some would find madness in the curl of the scribe 
Some would find sadness in death. 
But the mocking bird girl permits her song to be heard 
By the man who would take her last breath. 
The words to be reasoned 
The tune to be tried 
The love fan meticulously cooked from inside 
How many needs to be witnessed 
By the bird who lives on the mule 
How many dancers and rangers 
To fawn at the foot of the fool? 
More lives than a nuclear train crash 
More shoes than a Private hotel 
More titles most worthily ravished 
By the sight of the mocking birds tail.
