Prosopopea

a shining parrot that calls my name What pomposity you say The flying words are to blame I was only parodying per say when ink shot upon the page The mighty pen roared caught and ate the rage I was writing on the wings when joy flew in my window my bird was upright an innuendo flying through unchained skies
