Bald Eagles

BALD    EAGLES


Being  bald eagles isn’t the worst thing.
OK,    so they  want hair -   
And they want  to pair with other bald eagles -
So what’s wrong with that?
Maybe a wig,  which may  be  big,  then they’d  be  bigwig eagles.

Daring tough guys are bold eagles,  rich ones  are gold eagles,
Effeminate ones are mild eagles,  small ones  child eagles , 
Who of course just want to be  held eagles.
Worse would  be old eagles,  or captured and sold eagles ,  or cooked
Fast-food  ones who become cold-rolled eagles.
