The Reincarnated Zookeeper

The Reincarnated Zookeeper

L. Edgar Otto      01 October, 2013

(for last Fireblossom Friday)

If there is no final end of the world, it renewed

all the returning sentient souls chimera reviewed

The polliwogs try to cross the border, dandelion

pickers digging our fields far from blue eyed DeLeon

So history would relentlessly chain us in its clockwork

but were we not once brothers, so too where alights the stork?

Still, in another time my pincers red, not blue black ants

mongrel donkeys revolution red, no blue elephants

Like all unbirthday souls at the Hatter's tea party

that fill his top hat cups with laurels so hardy

Let Larry, Moe, and Curly gouge out their eyes

the peace sign knocked us down past knee or thighs

While Shep and sheppards flash their dairy aire

Doing hard time with them, we souls Lucky Pierre
