Canto 8
Would you like to be an elephant
seal?
Rapt, she nods her head
imagines herself, I imagine, asprawl
among dozens on a damp bed,
sandy, nuzzles for teat
or blunderfully sine-waves ahead
aiming to drop her meat
on the bitch shuffling seaward
through the alpha gate.
Adept, she zigzags forward
past each & every male
meaning to shag the award
albeit covering females
is all but reserved to Señor Alpha,
betas quarrel to no avail —
no matter,
the leftover gene pool so shallow
one squirt’s equal to another
assuring this pod will follow
the same route year after year,

out & back to Año Nuevo.
