a bird stretches its wings
stretched so far, blue becomes
black and white becomes grey.
jagged feathers and
sharp talons cut into the earth
scarring what would have been.
the beat of its wings so
booming, even thunder
won’t come out and play.
it breathes ice
freezing the ground it feeds upon
and it’s captors.
death was never welcomed until now.
