put your stilts down little wader
put them both into the brown
for you'll be a lot more stable
when your landing gear is down

if you worry that the right leg
is much safer than the left
or if either feathered wing is
ornithoptically bereft

then you'll never use your grallae
for to stalk the reason why
and you'll never use your pinnae
for a flap into the sky
