Birth Control

By James Yarwood

"ScienceDaily (Feb. 11, 2008) — For several years, scientists have been working to determine why so many male smallmouth bass in the Potomac River basin have immature female egg cells in their testes - a form of intersex."

Lament the once proud
bass of the Potomac--
who traded their
testicles for ovaries.

Pity the poor frog
with a fifth leg
and six extra toes.

Rejoice in casual sex.
Humping the American Dream--
fornication without representation.

Pissed away and
flushed into not so fresh
waters.
