Duck I (Discovered) Zach Sherwin

Here's the plan today:
I'm going to tell a tale in an
Expansive way, three parts, but before we start
I'm going to bow my head and fold my hands and pray
"Grant I may share my narrative as well as I can relay
An anecdote. Help me spread my wings like a manta ray
As Superman would say, Up, up and away!"
...Okay, my friend teaches
At a boarding school about an hour out of Santa Fe

I went to see him there and on the final day of my
Campus stay, he suggested visiting the farm to
See the animals they had living in the barn
This guy, Nate, provided a guided tour
He said, "These are our new chickens."
I asked about the previous batch of birds. He said
"There are these wild dogs living in the hills and they
Raided the farm and every last feathered hen was
Massacred by those blasted curs
A bloodbath occured! It was nasty and brutish."
We moved on to the next stall
Nate pointed and he said
"That is Brutus."

I looked. There was a duck. He was
Sitting on the floor, dirt-packed and dusty
Nate said, "He's the only survivor of the
Dog attack. Yep, miraculously, not a
Single hair on him was harmed."
That's not the miracle. Ducks don't have hair
But what this duck did have was balls
A gigantic ironclad pair
