Poetaster

that you out-witted

out of wood

take caution of the cougar

casing captives twice as good.

If you whale as wanting waxwing

happy whang when wrong

be thrifty:

note weathercock to weevil

citing sing sing in your song.

For endangered pika inching

above threatened clouds

are weary

of burrowing cicadas

waking foes while calling pals. Dale Benjamin Drakeford, "Poetaster."
