It's Going to be a Cold Winter


yard birds
hopping and chirping in the damp grass
but that day
you were a fat crow
screaming "demerit" demerit"
I never meant for you to spend the whole morning
tied up in the gym
you should have used your beak

to loosen the jump ropes
and wiggle free

I'm sorry you don't like jump ropes
