A bird in an iron, unlatched cage can rattle around
flying to each corner, nook, and cranny and fall to the platform.
It lacks the ability to understand, that the door can be opened
and that there is indeed a life outwards that it has yet to know
It is taunted relentlessly until it has used up every pent of energy it ever knew it had because ****, it gave up after so many attempts to diverge those iron bars that were just too small for its own good like tectonic plates that had yet to move..
It only knew of what it was told and what it was taught and that the way it is living is the normal way
...But it isn't...
Because what does a helpless bird know
when it does not even know life outside the iron cage,
with an unlatched door...
