The Interesting Thing

the interesting
thing is a feather
on the sidewalk
on the way to
somewhere to
do something

the interesting
thing is the 
importance 
of flying to 
the bird  who
is on their way
somewhere to
do something

the interesting
thing is the 
human being's
need to take
flight among 
the clouds to
go somewhere
anywhere
or nowhere at
all

the interesting
thing is that
no matter how
hard we try we
may never fly
like a bird
