Birds

Birds can glide high above the sky, They see everything and can see through a lie They can go up up and high, And can always go faster than a fly. Birds nest where predators can’t rest, Fight in groups to scare off the best Feed their children and keep from stress Then migrate together, flying far far west. Us humans cannot fly in the wind, Cannot see through everything as if blind We cannot see the sunrise shine And cannot fight or fly whilst inter-twined. I wish I could fly, high above the sky See through every single lie And fly left, right, down, and up high And perhaps even faster than a fly. Maybe even nest and get easy rest, And cooperate together and become the best To keep children from starving and stress And go on vacation together, perhaps go west. I wish I was a bird, and could escape this artificial world Fly high away and explore the unfurled Leave everything behind for a world uncurled Hoping one day this story will become my new world.
