a
mourning dove
blue
jay
and
robin
sitting
on the fence
in
the church courtyard
just
down woods run
from
the sign in
don's
diner
for
extras
as
in actors
for
another episode
of
whatever
and
since the blue jay
is
the loudest
it
only makes sense that
he
or she would jump
to
the front of the line
with
the glossy 8 x 10s
under
wing
the
director pulling up
just
in time in his lexus rental
telling
everyone within earshot
that
they would all be considered
when
suddenly the red robin
lifts
a union card from under breast
and
the mourning dove breaks out weeping
like
an official funeral crier
don't
break a leg
