Zoo Animals
Animals inhabit the enclosures
Their eyes adjusting to the exposures
Of observing crowds
Filling up like clouds
A bear yawns as he’s surrounded
By scrawny vultures; confounded
Through darkened rooms
There are bats hovering and gliding in looms
Claws sticking upward; seeming to attack
Bumping through squares of glass; flying back
Buffalo lumber through the grass-covered ground
Their brown coats lightened as they’re crowned
By the vibrant rays of the sun
Lions stretch and lick
Their rough tongues combing smoothly and slick
Giraffes stretch their necks against the sky
Tall statures; tails whipping against flies
Tigers roaming across their enclosures
Ignoring the crowds; keeping their composure
The tour soon ends; crowds of people disbanding
The zoo now feels as if empty; stranded
