Sans disgrace

sorenbarrett

Became a vulture when you wanted an eagle

Had hunger for carrion not fresh meat

Turned thief not regal

Rotten tasted so sweet

 

Not wearing your crown

I pick old bones, siting, lazy

homeless a flying clown

table manners, stark raving crazy

 

Both of us with feather

Nature's motherly hand did place

monarch as well as robber together

sans disgrace

    Wonderful strong metaphors here sorenbarrett. Give me an eagle any day of the week. Three perfectly penned stanzas. Have a happy Wednesday.
