Maturity Is For Thr Birds
Maturity is for the birds
I heard the vultures gossip
Over sinews and crunchy bones
At the time it seemed almost prophetic
When I saw the crows
Coming down
For leftovers
Ravenous joining fun
Over spirits and fine innards
The special guest forgotten
And true a nameless victim
But, maturity is for the birds
An attribute only wasted on some
