it does not seem to hum a tune 
but progresses on its own steam unconcerned
to eventually relinquish with a bang

must it be playing games with our resolve
tickling our conscience to impose guilt feelings
that it should later seek to innocently absolve

  2. I like how you describe the parrot as marching to its own song so to speak with no apologies, well done, Hank! 💛

  4. Perhaps, we need more gentle humming then loud squawking. Those birds are beautiful and can pick up human language easily.

  5. Humming seems too subtle for raucous parrots! Unique take on the prompt, Hank :)

  6. Not everyone can hum tunefully! Interesting take, Hank.
