the stork's beared many gifts
and it's finally come to interact
looking to enlist others
expanding its territory

in the guise of understanding
you copy it, an homage
selfishly sharing in its moment
as if it needs your acknowledgement

the bird ain't here to touch itself
it wants to diversify its flight
mastering treaded path isn't proof of carving one's own

the stork can't fly through a mirror,
it needs a door
