Notes About The Poem

Pigeons

Pompous city dwellers,
pretentious rock doves now
parade around like a 
popinjay or fancy
peacock, and yet, they're not
persnickety poopers:
pooping on everything.

Congrats on your winner. Way to go. We used to have pigeons all over our downtown square. I think they hired someone to remove them and then fix it where they would not have a place to roost. I like the sounds they make but they do create a mess all around. People used keep them on farms to have food called squab. Sara

Thanks Sara, I used to raise pigeons when I was a kid growing up on a farm, and yes they taste good roasted, I appreciate your comments my friend, Emile.
