genuine in deed and isolation (a bird's eye view)


 
 
I found a little bird  
that fell so far  
from it's warm nesting place  
O' the darkened comfort
of an only known
safe home  
 
isolated
on a ground
of bitter cold  
swallowed whole  
in the mouth
of nature's unrepentant
icy unregretful role  
 
a panicked flutter
of unstructured wings  
a squawking strain
squeezing from premature lungs
jagged single tears  
sliding into
all that obvious fear  
 
petrified in willful pretending  
heart, visually slamming
hopeless  
of any possible winning
left to become so much like them  
is to end in a methodical all alone  
 
I once found a little bird  
that fell so very far  
it asked to be placed from which it came
secure now, away safe  
in the comfort of it's  
 
genuine chosen home
