Kate Orff, Kate Orff
behold the source of
Katydids katydiding
and seascapes easing,
seas ceasing to seize
as they come upon what Katy did.
Currents break up on islands of rock
strategically placed by she
who would tame the rising wrath of the sea
and seed it with oysters instead.
That’s what Kate Orff did.
Katy did it.
