flight

[Alan Sondheim]

flight

the wing'ed brown pelican takes flight
among icons suitable for framing
the win'ged brown pelican at night
suffuses my talons for taming
increases my talent for blaming
creates my tale-end for naming
construes my tail-end for maiming
the winging brown pelican at night
plays harder and longer at gaming
with pelicans snug and in flight
