Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Throatful - LP Zoo


An Anthony's dart frog, I do

Make my awesome male mating call

Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo,

Loud enough to be heard by all.

My vocal sacs under my chin

I do blow up like a balloon.

Then my mating call does begin

In a chirping, whistle like tune.

For several seconds or so

My mating call does resonate.

Through the airwaves my sound does flow

Hoping to attract a good mate.


If you happen to hear my pipes,

Know that humans are not my types.
