leschi south marina is where i 
kept a sailboat from 2016-2021. it 
used to be affordable until the parks 
department outsourced management 
to a private firm that doubled prices
but anyway, still a nice place to pause 
between job consultations and i watch 
a crew rowing and one brave cold water
 

swimmer
and wouldn't switch places with 
either of 'em. this bird deterrent system is 
on par with art i've seen in fancy galleries 
and museums--such sensitive composition 
and attention to detail, i see it as a comment 
on the insufferable 'tude of geese. i honestly 
don't know a more disdainful bird, which is 
why they're called fowl. just kidding, folks! 
i have a lot of respect for all wild creatures, 
even the ones that wouldn't extend the same 
grace to me. but aren't geese just a little bit 
fascist, what with all the flight formations 
and goosestepping? ha ha, another joke! i 
would never disparage the majestic and 
intelligent Anser, so noble of bearing... 
and i'm not just saying that in case 
one of them happens to read this. 

...all hail our goose overlords
