feed the birds

two crows sitting on a post
eating small bites of buttered toast
a smattering of marmalade preferred most
Marmite declined it tastes so gross
the small birds liked the crumbs the most

two vultures sitting on a post
scanned the desert undergrowth
for human flesh on toasted bones
with hemoglobin gravy tones
the small birds eat the maggots firm
