the orangutan and the zouave
went out in all sorts of weather
to find the flamingo
which had escaped from the carnival
somewhere between erie prennsylvania and abilene kansas
but had enough respect for tradition
not to serve strawberry shortcake to the returning troops
as had been the habit in general custer’s day
before the dawn of the new civilization
which flowered so briefly
after the perusal of the enigmatic message
from the lovely lady who had very strong opinions
but expressed them, happily
in the boldest and briefest manner
