Tell me of a time When like a bluebird I sang Lilting elegance and innocence For I can't recall What it was like To fly free Whipping winds caress Blue feathers. Blue feathers Rough hands Cold hearts Blue was stained black so long ago No trace of cyan No aquamarine No cerulean hue Indian ink ****** upon wings Soaking like tar puddles Sticking feet to floor, Turning such body into Toxic/cancer cage The vulture stands just outside Pecking at bluebirds heart Such devil would feel of stone Killing a mockingbird~ A mortal moral sin. Fresh dawn and rain washes black feathers Slowly, but surely nonetheless Maybe one day Blue will blend on blue again Wafting fragrant flowers bloom And vulture starve on happiness
