Performance interrupted


The deer who gather in my yard 
All seem to be related: 
Here two brothers with matching racks 
Appear to be debating 
 Whose dance moves are more graceful, 
And who forgot to do the crossover 
That happens at the bridge 
Of that particular bird’s song 
That they are hearing,
While I, their audience,
Am about to clap,
And scare them all away.
