The fur seal courts the king penguin
runs after it,
as if the penguin were a desirable female seal
and then fails
(it’s just not possible physically;
and hey, the girl says NO!)
and then tears the bird to bits
and eats it
(if you can't ***** it
you eat it)
maybe that fur seal is a loser
chased out by other dominant seals
all female seals taken for the season
and so tries in desperation
to gain entry into a penguin
2
like other losers
many life-forms do it, it seems
insects, spiders, worms, frogs
birds and fish – they just do it…
chaotic with testosterone,
exiled from female receptacles
where you pour in *****

....based on a report "Marine mammals turn to other species for ***" (The International Herald Tribune, 28 Nov 2012)....but the IHT wouldn't let me read the article online as I'd already read 10 articles from them this month (!) and so I had to find the article elsewhere through a web search....
