[2016] Nevermind

 
Grabbing the raven's beak
I said of my precious Lenore
Don't you no more speak!
tiring of this black bird
repeating its obnoxious greeting
weathered feathered turd
cawing, croaking, tweeting
the word nevermore
to the point of no return
couldn't take it anymore
to which I did turn
chased him throughout the room
swiftly swatting with a broom
hockey-pucking
slap-shotting
the little motherfucking magpie
right out the door
