Allegory
...ambitious robin keeps his shrewd ear low,Jenny Mueller
and hears the dew
vanish, the shade
steal, the cat
mouse, the grass
cover the worm.
The crow hears lies, lies, lies, and cries
out curses. Nighthawk hears the crow's
lyrical soul.
The mockingbird hears comedy
in all this.
The dove hears pain...
