Peacocks

Peacocks with magnificent stares,
tails following their shadows with caramel-colored
plumes and seductive half-taught tongues,
overshadow their female counterparts.

Their pairs are less flashy and more stoic,
surpassing the males’ icy demeanor, itself incapable of breaking.
So much so is their ordinariness, that they seem
jealous of their handsome, delicious mates.
