FREEWRITE: Announcement
I.
Someone has gotten them
all up in a fuss:
The birds are barking
madly! And I consider large beaks
and small
obnoxious eyes. Perhaps.
There are many names
for these sounds
and many sounds
But the barking is king
even at a distance
What is it, bird?
Dammit! Why won’t they listen?
II.
Someone twits-
Rumors,
no doubt.
She’s got it all wrong
They’ve got it all wrong
All out of context
Fake news.
