Petrified Feathers
You singed
the last feather off my back
took away my sky my flight
Congratulations, lady fire you win
I surrender.
I'm leaving...
You can choke on those feathers for all I care.
When true warmth, true peace blows my way
I'll regrow a new pristine flight.
Regain the sky-high ground
and
watch you sink into the zinc cold earth.
Weighted down with singed flight feathers
petrified into silence.
