Birds
Plummage ruffledthroats trilling
everyones in the process
of billing
their words like birds
shilling, breeding on
with their song.
How does it sell?
Does it do well?
Is it popular?
Does it have
recognition through internet doppler?
When democracy determines poetry
the questions becomes:
who's the best at promotion,
at beating their drums?
It isn't aesthetics,
just technological
athletics.
The worthy and the lucky
mingle beyond what all of us
try to do: set out our shingles
and expand our pond.
