THE
CAPISTRANO BIRDS
An
Ode that would lend itself to Oratorios
By Izzy Ess of Fuzziness
It
seems to me, in Napoli, the Capistrano
Birds
return much earlier
Than
usual. Last year, they re-appeared
In
prima vera, while this year they re-
Appeared
in February, while the snow
Was
yet around. The songs of Naples were
Rehearsed
by Il Castrato y Il Romeo.
Our
Julietta was engaged in other
Things,
like mucking out the stables and
Re-servicing,
re-surfacing and re-
Arranging
stable boys. Ms. Julietta’s
Mother,
Maude Sophia was entranced
By
Mister Marshall Mastroianni from
The
north of Tuscany who took her out
On
horseback and he showed her how to ride
Undressed
and also bareback, in the barn,
On
Saturdays. The Capistrano Blue
Birds
won the Stanley Epstein Cup that year
And
proved to be the champions, as called.
The
women who came down were sore appalled.
THE
END
