As Night Falls
Black birds’ wings smeared
Red yellow and orange
Trill out their message to the world.
Mocking birds copy to confuse.
The purple martins and cardinals
Impinge on their territory.
As night falls
Cicadas, crickets and all kinds of frogs
Sing out, in the mind numbing hum of sexual imperative.
The alligators behind my house are belching out
In dull insistence to their mates;
Like dinosaurs fucking in the light of the full moon.
