Susan Mitchell, "Feeding the Ducks at the Howard Johnson Motel"



Susan Mitchell's poem contains both comedy and darkness. The water in today's pics strikes me as ominous, but my ducks seems entirely comic. I considered this caption: "If you want fish sticks for lunch, raise your butt."

But that seemed immature, or downright moronic, so I kept it to myself.
