little bird...fly too high,
then come crashing down again.
when will she ever learn?
her wings aren't light as air-
instead they're tarred feathers.
her flight isn't with angels,
but impeded by the fall.
slow little bird...dragons at her back,
singed and smoking tail.
careening to the earth below...
or is it lower still she plummets?
