Zookeepers Haiku


This is for Jingle Poetry Potluck
This week we had to write a poem based on
Dictatorship, Autocracy and Despotism




Overpowering
Fools view your mind inferior
Of little import

They think they observe
Primates family of apes
Zookeeper: their role

These primates fight
 Teaching harsh lessons
Keeper had to learn

Admittance follows
Regret, remorse unearthed
Ape views now valued



Also in Poetry Pantry 53
