winter has come
empting your nests
exposing bone
revealing weakness.
as the rot of cold
sets in, the birds
flee your
ribbed cages,
taking with them
their songs, and
leaving behind
your desire to escape.

winter has come
empting your nests
exposing bone
revealing weakness.
as the rot of cold
sets in, the birds
flee your
ribbed cages,
taking with them
their songs, and
leaving behind
your desire to escape.
