Slightly Higher in Canada

call of the goose, bereft,

his mate 

somewhere over 

the moon and gone 

o lord, she can't get no higher 

then  its stumble flight 

nip, nipping at shadows

plotting revenge 

on the wind

and the flirtatious pull,

of the stars  

spellbound it is-

- thunderstruck 

down-in-the-mouth 

this bird, 

one toke over the line 

wings akimbo

did you mean to shoot straight 

take a drag 

collect your prize 

it leaned into the bullet 

didn't it ?
