All of the European Starlings found today in North America--and they number in the 200 million range--are descendants of approximately 100 birds introduced in New York City's Central Park in the early 1890s. A society dedicated to introducing into America all of the birds mentioned in the works of Shakespeare set these birds free.

sommer,
dont get too clever...
Lester,
Don't turn the reading light so that it faces the curtains, please. That bothers me. I'm not sure why, but it does.
Not a problem. Just some good natured wrestling.
Anybody seen my glasses? I think I might have left them around here somewhere.
Did you check your pockets? Did you check your jacket pockets? Where did you leave them last time?
I hope you found your glasses, Noah.
"...roll down the window to hear what it's like / outside. It's like / noisy..."
that's pretty great.
I agree. I love that break & how simple & funny it is. But then I love how the poem refuses to rest there in the the space of trick. That trick steps the poem out of the familair narrative set-up & into the thing that the rest of the poem does.
