Neo-Platonic Darwinian Bird-Ness
The birds might say, “Oh, look at the pretty humans!
They have waited all winter for us to return!”
And so we have, like seasonal hoteliers
Inviting our guests back for their holiday
The seed-buffets on little metal trays
And little plastic houses in the trees
Bespeak our thoughtful hospitality
For little friends who live upon their wings
Now summering in nest and eave and steeple
The birds must laugh, “Oh look at the people!”
