This is simply a celebration of one of God's creations given a very human name.
Secretary
Bird
An eagle on
stilts with a kick like a mule,
sitting
afore glowing screens tasking demurely,
in your
outer office but nobody’s fool,
an efficient
taskmaster working ruthlessly.
Quills
quivering in anticipation,
stalking purposefully
towards unsuspecting prey,
some luckless
menial striving for perfection,
unaware
they are coming to the end of their day.
No ordinary
administrative Moneypenny,
clothed in
her black and white finery,
but an
elegant and efficient repository,
ready to
stomp with final authority.
