Taxonomy

grouped and regrouped, the
orders and suborders, the
genus, divisions, as
white sheets flap in the
wind, awaiting
starched corners

each clade and domain,
these flightless bipeds
basking in self-created
glory on their pavingstones

phylum, class, and legion,
must keep their order,
red and black-ink lined,
so clear as to cut
