skeeters make me scratch

unite

have i ever been part of an action to unite?
myself and another against an adversary?
have i joined a group of those uniting against some threat or injustice?
a union or army or collection of friends?
is marriage a way to unite?
can i unite with nature against the depredations of mankind?

perhaps i’ll start by uniting with someone who can help me answer these questions.

snowy egret wades
careful picky with quick beak
i inspect my plate
