Gosh, what a packed street!

The Secretary, President and TREASURER went by!

"That's not a grackle," said I to all of him,

Seething with their poetry, iron-tongued, grim,

"That's an English sparrow on that limb!"

And they all went home

No more to roam.

[Intemperately]

And I watched their unmade poetry raise up like foam

[With calm majesty]
