What do I know of this Blue Bird?
Absolutely nothing.
I know It flies so high into the pink of the sun,
It migrates south one year then comes back
north for the next.
I know It likes to sneak Its eggs
into other nests to ensure Its brood
survives.
But really,
that’s all I know.
I know nothing significant—
I know not what It feels,
what It thinks,
I do not see Its memories as a young chick
learning to fly, to hunt.
All I know is that it's blue
and likes to crack nuts with
Its sturdy black bill.
