Lightbird

Lights in dark,
a turning plough,
tube of tin and roar

with faces in a
box, high above
cold woods, streams and fields

and real life.Sinews below
rest and frim,
eyes turn to heaven

to the prison of
bad air, mocked angel,
packed life.

And should they
fall from the sky;
there is a kinship in distress.
