I ate like a bird because I thought my wings were clipped
Being unfettered was akin to subjugation
I would have none of it
Immotile, forgotten, but I was not fragile
Impatient, rattled, but I was not-
fractured

Weakened

Energy stolen from the borealis inside
An aurora be a horror, they would coincide
To create, propitiate, a cataclysm by name
Clipping wings, smashing things, it all ends the same

Sacrifice the avarice of taking what I am
I really want to fly, though this life be a sham
Bam, smack, shot, broken, scattered
Crush my beak, I'd be so weak

I'd just wait to be shattered

But you can't, cease my chirp, or stop my song
I'm warbling in the seething gale
You may belittle me, with enmity
It all just falls along
But I seldom think I'll ever fail

So chain me
Bondage
Hold me back
The moment I am freed
I will strike you black

Sparrow.
