Muscovy and American Buff hydryds
where talked about.
Sceince would use two turkeys 
2 muscovy duck
and two american Buff
to create a new taste.
Lacking the fishyness of goose
the gameyness of wild turkeys, geese and ducks
they looked to solve the evolutionary problem of
making a bird
that is cheap afordable
and willing to reproduce quickly and cheaply
for a public that is willing to buy.
"These species are genetically and taxonomically completely incompatible. Because they belong to different taxonomic groups (turkeys belong to the Galliformes order, while Muscovy ducks belong to Anseriformes), they cannot produce viable offspring"

Genus

"Genus" 

taxonomic 
classifying worth
separating the yolk 
from the white
like poets pegged
on a line to dry
still and wet 
behind the ears
years slapped
heartily away
and back into 
the shore 
like tides
to bare feet

hear them cry

Premium Member Shape of the Institution

I have the shape of the institution.
Each email address is a human.

They are known by their words and actions.
The whole wide world is just a fraction

of all I do not know. Expansion
and contraction, breathe in, out, meditation

on existence, non-existence, creation
and duration. I have no explanation

for fusion, fission, taxonomic relations
or artificial classification.

More I do not know: locomotion
by combustion, electron separation

and transportation via superconduction
which supports the idea of the unified nation.

What girls are like behind their eyes. Masturbation
a useful restraint on overpopulation.

The story of a life, my life, any life, cohesion
must be rationed, conjured, a fiction

about a vexed, tenacious town, its rail station
truck stop, high school, night spots, recreations

the temporary citizens enact visions
dream-like orations, ballets, conflagrations

to in the end receive in annals honorable mention
from family, friends, neighbors, colleagues, institutions.

Premium Member Come Get the Cheese

A taxonomic binomial that does not sound fabulous: 
That would be the term "Rattus norvegicanus". 
The species belongs to the order Rodentia. 
They can be found anywhere except Antarctica. 
Rats seem to proliferate quite freely. 
What annoying pests these creatures can be! 
However, there's a way to rid them, fortunately. 
Just take a trap and bait it with cheese. 
That's a tried and true method to exterminate them with ease.

Premium Member Torpedo Grass

Torpedo grass is a noxious weed.
To gardeners, it’s a plant they don’t need.
Widespread, it almost never grows from seed.
Some botanists say it hails from Asia.
Others claim the plant comes from Africa.
Either way, this weed made it to America.
Panicum repens is its taxonomic name.
One of the fastest growing weeds is its claim.
The grass grows in wetlands and sand dunes rapidly.
The rhizomes grow along the ground horizontally.
It withstands heat and drought quite hardily.
The plant can be used for forage and made into hay.
However, most people don’t need it any day.

I thank wikipedia.org online encycylopedia for information I needed to write this poem.
