DUCK TAILS

Bottoms up
Mallards in pond
Behind the Court of Appeals

Head first
Upside down
Orange webbed legs paddle

Duck eyes
Peering through algae
Beaks nibbling submarine morsels

Concentric waves
Surround their backsides
Viewed through branches of Rose Mallow

Bottoms down
Heads up for air
This is your Nature and mine
