oh, you bird - you feathered, foolish bird.
go fly away while you still can.
have you yet to learn that your life is not a game?
of course
do not listen to me
for i, a mere human,
have yet to learn how to fly myself.
caught in cycle after cycle of foolish human games,
stuck.
within the seemingly endless misconception of tomorrow.
oh, bird
show me your ways
teach me how to live
the way you live.
teach me
how
to fly
