Gray Squirrel Poet Free verse

Offensive

I'm Not When
 I'm Skin Bare
  Because I
   Have No Feathers.

        No Flight No
     Ruffled Glistening;

***Light Loves Love!***

But Now:

    All Molted, All Shear...
   Pride's Vanity All
 Coughed Up.

***Ahhh... That's Better.***

Not Defenseless:

    Thread-bare.

    Un-Offensive 

          And...

   Un-Offendable.

Abnormal And New...

        *******

Feathers Sprouting!

  (Phantom Wish.)
