(w/gratitude to the Anderson/Coppola film Moonrise Kingdom )
"T-t-t-t-t-t!" I chirp to hear my mate laugh
Tied a clump of hair with a rubber
band an inch above my forehead
Bobbed into the room looking
shyly beneath the teardrop topknot
itchy hair switching my face
Prompt:"What bird are you?"
Line: "Cuckoo! Cuckoo!"
Review: "This answerve startled the quail ingenue."
