GRASSHOPPER, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Wingletting with the golden scrawl
Last Line: O, illuminate!
Alternate Author Name(s): Vladimirovich, Viktor
Subject(s): Grasshoppers


Wingletting with the golden scrawl
Of its finest sinews,
The grasshopper loaded its trailer-belly
With many coastal herbs and faiths.
"Ping, ping, ping!" tra-lah-ed the zingzinger.
O, swanderful!
O, illuminate!
