National Poetry Month, Gods Are Bored Edition!

The parrot and the carrot one may easily confound.
They're very much alike in looks, and similar in sound.
We recognize the parrot by his clear articulation,
For carrots are unable to engage in conversation.

From How To Tell the Birds from the Flowers, by Robert Williams Wood

Have at it. Except if you are an East Asian escort service. If the latter, you run the risk of a hex.
