it's a long way to apiary in poetry

nerdy birds have the prettiest feathers
warmed against the biting winter trundle
insulated by their charming fact bundles
immune to the world’s shifting weathers
so very fevered by the dreamers’ disease
nerdy birdies, this life has schooled me
these nerdy birds are goddamn bees knees
apiary and aviary both, the lesson is taught
nerdy words make their plumage real hot
