Oh, the bird outside

fluttering ethereal

Oh, I am inside

gazing out,

to the forest of skyscrapers.


"It's dangerous outside." Mother says.

"Just stay here where you are safe." Father says.

They are indoctrinating me, yes.

But I dare not challenge.


Just glance out,

in mist of bulky blocks flew that bird

fugaciously wandering

to wherever it desires.


Oh, the bird outside,

next time,

bring me across seas and fields, 

over and over the planet.

over and over the planet
