i wish i could take flight as the plover rather than flail and fight ‘till it’s over wading through endless swamps of mire waiting until i discard my ire fading faster than last summer’s clover i wish i could sing as the songbird sings maybe tell the tale of beautiful things cut through the skylight chains strut about the windowpanes but i haven’t any wings

as the plover
i wish i could take flight as the plover rather than flail and fight ‘till it’s over wading through endless swamps of mire waiting until i discard my ire fading faster than last summer’s clover i wish i could sing as the songbird sings maybe tell the tale of beautiful things cut through the skylight chains strut about the windowpanes but i haven’t any wings
