Owl Valentine

Mockingbird preaching
down the street yes it's
that day so he sings
in tongues sans accent
and sans accident

target practice moon
trying to escape
into the daylight
my plastic owl turns
its black back on you

closer and closer
to my trees he comes
his wings nostalgic
for his dragon heart
his song still not done.
