Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Vulture Awareness Day '21 - LP Zoo

It is Vulture Awareness Day.

Vulture, Grimm, makes us aware that

He's vigilant looking for prey,

As he finds in his habitat

An ear of corn the keepers placed.

Grimm, with his talons, does grab on

And with sharp beak does in great haste

Shred it apart like carrion.

But when Grimm is done with his task

Looking for something good to eat,

He looks around as if to ask,

"All this effort, so where's the meat?"

Grimm will get meat on which to chew

Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
