Fran Pulle’s poetry about the Bethel sculpture exhibits:
BYE BYE BIRDIE❗️?
Was biking ? by the library, ?
was not liking the sculpture ??
when I pause and flip the bird ‘the bird’. . .?
“WHOA! WHERE’S THE VULTURE?!” ?
Where’s ‘THE THING’, the ‘feathered’ WING,
kid-friendly KILLER BEAK? ???
Where’s the ‘CLAW’ (that ghastly paw)
I saw? (Maybe LAST WEEK?)
Where’s the scrapyard metal ?⛓⚙️
scarred and weathered snout to tail? ?
Where ARE the signs “NO CLIMBING!”
“WE PROSECUTE/SURVEIL!!” ?✈️
Where are the ‘candid’ cameras? ?
(An outrage simply put) ?
And all those ‘Kodak moments’
when the FREAKSTER was afoot? ?
Should you pass by the library. . .?
(Center of village culture)
Clap and shout “GOOD RIDDANCE,
NEW AGE (caw! caw! caw! caw!) ‘SCULPTURE’!” ? ? ?
Tombstone reads:
“HAPPY (EN)TRAILS” ❤️ “R I P(IECES)”
