1. Repost of inspo for a poem of mine, about a bachelor goose in my housing complex, who I noticed had begun minding an unattended [goose, I assume] egg.
2. BACHELOR GOOSE

A poem by Moe Murph
4.

The genetic war over, with an arrogant WHOOOMP of his left wing, The Victor kicks him a "bad egg."
5.

We see each other daily. Is he widower? His mate lost in fire? Phone wire? Someone's Thanksgiving?
Passing him by again with my grocery cart, the solitary goose meets my eye, and we acknowledge.

That some of us are just better off single!
I kept original verses where possible but cut and edit a few for typos. Thus puzzling formatting.

Ms. Ling, I would be honored to share this story with you.

It captures the heartache and abiding fear of would-be lovers in Dupont Circle DC in the days of the Lavendef Scare. I wrote it long before discovering the opera!
