agile fliers like the finch
are always keen to mock the blackbird
while the blackbirds
who enjoy eating my apples
mock the cat
who doesn't know that joy
a joke and a joke makes two
the predator is limited
according to the plant eater

zonder titel
een vlugge vlieger zoals de vink
kan altijd spotten om de merel
terwijl de merels
die zo graag mijn appels eten
de poes uitlachen
die dat genot niet kent
want spot en spot is twee:
het roofdier is beperkt
denkt elke planteneter
