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.
