“Two possibilities exist: either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.” -Arthur C. Clark


and that was it
songbird sprung from the window
harp-lungs twitching and itching to sing
not to me, no, no more

red feathered bird
Goodbye
and maybe we’ll pass each other
in new lives

and don’t think it was bad
the way you sang and the way I watched
because I know that birds don’t live on windowsills
not today

but tommorow
I’ll turn around
to sounds of doves and red feathered birds
out on the fence

outside my window
in the wind,
you’ll remember me, maybe, maybe.
