Justice for the Birds

A crow, a raven, a grackle, birds so dark, 
were apprehended in the park.
They stood in a line-up.  They were caught.  
Which was the grackle?  Which was not?

Locked up, they were - a bad assumption.
What they need is not redemption.
They just need another trial, 
A guilty snow-white dove, meanwhile, 
sits in the sun and wears a smile.
