Critterature: Don't Hate Him Because He's Beautiful

Quirina and Quiqui Quetzal* Were a truly splendiferous pair. They won first prize at Mardi Gras As if nobody else was there. This had ruffled a number of feathers Among some who'd come very far And spent weeks and months on elaborate costumes While the Quetzals were "come as you are". But they'd been down this road before, And Quiqui had a plan. He'd arranged to start a brawl or two So later Quirina could brag That he really was her "macho man", Not just a sissy guy in drag. *Author's note: For some of you more ornithologically challenged P Soupers, the quetzal is a brilliantly plumaged bird of primarily Mexico and Central America.
