∴

i fly at the sight of cages, storms, and monsters.

so let me go.
let me live in the wild
and i will sing for you
a free and haunting song.

·

what notes i do not utter
with audible tune
i’ll issue with a wing
and a movement on the wind.

·

what nests i do not build
with structure and frame
i’ll deliver with gifts of silk
and tinsel
and leave them at your sill.

·

so let me go.
let me live in the wild
and i will sing for you
a free and haunting song.

and perhaps even remind you

that you can sing, too.
