Happy Birthday to you!
Oh, terrible and fearsome King!
Kong’s apposable thumb
and bigger brain
didn’t stop him from
displaying his prize —
a resurrection of your former self,
the ruler ship over a planet of apes,
now mere mortals in its
infancy of gathering
bones leftover from yesterday’s
meal of flesh and blood.
Author’s note: Instead of taking my own photo, I’ve decided to try writing poetry based on Matt’s weekly photo challenge.
