Is Flarf a Colored Bird?

I like single syllable words

but also multi-colored birds.

Where multi-syllable words grow

there are words which i don’t know.

Such words are jabberwocky

which may mean nothing to me.

Often they sound pretty good

but i don’t know why they should.

Parrots are multi-colored birds

who only use mocking words.

They have a good memory

which has slipped away from me.

What other mocking birds say

makes sense, to them anyway.
