The Polynesian Voyagers

brought red junglefowl
chickens with them.

Today, there are many

strutting around 
our islands.
This fellow makes

on what you're 
looking for 
that you overlook
 the thing 
you actually find. "

 a few perceives 
what has been 
carefully hidden. "

" How little do they see
 what really is, 
who frame their 
hasty judgment

which seems. "
