XLVIII

The spindly arms of the
glazed bean-eating warble-wearer
flap wildly in the wind,
floppy appendages
good for expressing emotions
in lieu of of articulating
intellectual positions.
Trembling in the breeze,
those arms can indicate excitement,
disappointment, hunger
and even bewilderment in a pinch.

Wharved.com I am a poet. I write poems. Titles and subjects and subsequent readership are all part of one fragmented figment of our universe, and it's nice that we take it so seriously. Hopefully the craft remains and grows stronger for our children. View all posts by Aidan Badinger
