I need help explaining this poem in one paragraph

I like the pink flamingo in your yard
exotic cocky jungle bird,
jauntily poking through the crisp sheet snow.

nuzzeled on a feather bed flushed
with anticipation, the winking eye invites my warm participation.

but rigid with embarrassmen, the arching neck freezez at my caress:
cosmetic come-on masking an empty eden.

painted jockey-boys, gnomes, and swans
embowell’d with rotted flowers,
inhabit the false neighbourhood of yours.

I think I will return to my old yard,
and feed the sparrow at my door;
dowdy, perdictable, but always begging more
