Wingless Bird
Wingless Bird
I wasn’t taught
Reach for the stars
I never knew
It’s not too far
I knew to stop
Look both ways
And never touch
A burning flame
Encouragement
Was never heard
I left the nest
A wingless bird
Survival was
My only school
Doctorate in hit
And bachelors in booze
I left the nest
A wounded bird
Then found my wings
In written words
