Parakeets
They have been uprooted from the only life they have ever known,
the poor things.
New so-called family, new barred cage, new fake toys.
Scared shitless. (Literally.)
They will try to tempt you.
"Pretty bird." "Pretty bird."
Don't you dare trust the humans.
Don't you dare let them clip your wings.
