The Vole
Not tall by any means, with their blunt muzzles and small ears
There remains several tiny reasons to doubt these
Experimenters that go awry season after season
Female voles have voices that evaporate rapidly
When contrasted to the faithful Rodentias who seek to
Maintain their rapidly evolving triangles of faith.
Voles exhibit these complex manifestations
In order to resemble anything other than the beings they are,
Witness both the female who, lithe, and less than seven inches tall
And the male which, as in the majority of species, is rootless,
Clandestine, and useless to the quest, both, continue on in cause of
If not in spite of their conspiracy of meaninglessness.
