Desperate
The seagulls eyes were red.
I tossed one a fry from the bench
in the park, and it cawed as it pecked
up its prize and flew away.
The others leapt too late, shrieking
as they landed violently together.
Two tussled in a haze of wings,
hacking at each other’s throats
until blood was drawn.
I tossed another fry.
