A Pharmacy Tale for that Bird-Hater, Mandy by Jenny Gropp Hess

A Pharmacy Tale for That Bird-Hater, Mandy
(A poem I have been working on for years)


Mandy, here’s a cream

for yr bird allergy, this

poem-tube with a picture

of boss on it saying “I creamed

the corn of that jimmy crack-

ed corn-cracked hyper-jimmied

bird-shake(r) with jimmies

so squeeze here & rub & get yr

feckin’ freedom fighter fingers

around that bird bump and pop

its lungheads free for everyone!”
