What Comes Around


I’m sorry to report
the wildebeest, alas,
has been consumed, it gnu
too much, and tasted good;
the jackal (African,
coyote-ish) (hunger
compelled the savage beast;
it ate all but bones and
tendons) left what it could
not digest, a gift for
bacteria to munch,
some yummy leftovers
to birth a billion babes,
one-celled progeny to
decompose their betters.
