Caged Bird

Living livid, teeming yet timid You smolder your own flames Ranting raging, Scorn birds from cage sing Beaks bellow from beyond the bars Futile fury, no where with hurry this useless vexful venting Drama unending, soul not mending break so brittle while barely bending Living loathsome, torrid yet tamed You smolder your own flames Weak war waging, from the cage sing Beak bellows from beyond the bars
