Insults and Apologies to
a Seagull
By John
Sweethardt
As told
by Francis Carlisle
You are structurally unsound.
You wobble on that ferry boat
piling on your rickety legs.
What makes you so awkward?
Why are you such a dodder?
brurr brurr brurr brurr brurr
brurr
(Ferry boat pulls off)
My apologies to you Mr. Seagull.
Did I say awkward?
I saw no far arching wings.
Did I say rickety legs?
I saw no flit float flutter
loll.
Did I say such a word as dodder?
You who can float absolutely
atune .to the wind.
And wait not quite ready,
Not quite,
Waiting for that long swift
plunge to the churned waters.
My apologies to you Mr. Seagull.
I didn't know you.
A magical brew,
An olive in It.
A Kettle.of Fish
With people in it.
Cards and coins and seagulls,
And Francis knows
Wherever you think you see
it,
j. j. walker
