evicting squatting
Canada Geese.
Their raptor eyes
study the horizon
and I wonder

over goose eggs.

I have my doubts!
“We all have individually special kingdoms of success in each of us. Obedience is the throne of those kingdoms without which the real person we are is sure to suffer eviction.”
Obedience to what?
Methinks the geese have their goose cooked! 🙂
Seems to be. The whole flock appears to have disappeared.
