Starlings
. Sad kings would have themselves Be known as Bard, tho without music They clack song, clang along, bleeding Ears in their sycophantic, bull kingdoms, The horns, hardly trumpet in the barnyards, For it is writ, because they have so inscribed, All must now be audience, and used witness, The spotted fawn, is all their sorrowed brilliance, Yet, the tower raven mocks these kings crowing, How they vainly display their sorry proclamations On flea broken, loosed, rusted, disused abacus, Their tabulations of worths non are mounted In a mirror by their chambers and hands, But all the knowledge of fallen Rome Are simply pleasures to dream, As their dim wordy dreams Know praises so hollow, As fools on a throne.

. In mid airs, dimly, The ****** birds cluck, Only flutter useless wings For they are grounded, Nor are they beautiful, O how they feign singing, Gutteral cluckings only fit For predators to stalk, Lame ugly birds prefer The company of other Lame, ugly, groundy birds, With no things, ever, to sing, Only to preen and beak For scraps under trees, Where winged songbirds Lit by the flighty sun Do truly sing.

*Scraps in an alley Crumpled throwaways their stars What is left of them*
