Exploding Baby Ducks - by adewpearl


Exploding ducklings --
the world has reached its nadir.
Have we come to this?
Sacrificing baby ducks
upon a boom-bang altar?

Author Notes
In the fanstory camp contest, zeezeewriter has written a scene in which I am challenged to write a tanka about exploding baby ducks. This is the answer to her challenge. It means nothing. No baby ducks were actually harmed in the making of this poem. I love all baby animals.
But I love zeezee too, and she deserves this :-)
