Think about how the type of birds you choose can symbolise the themes of the story.
Their senseless programmed circles
Birds circled overhead
They circled with a false sense of freedom
Obtaining the power to go where they chose, yet mindlessly flying in circles
Over and over and over again, almost in a programmed or practiced motion
Perhaps they enjoy the sense of community
With their senseless flight of motion
Maybe they even feel fulfilled with this repetive routine
Don't they know there's a whole sky?
As I watch from afar, I almost feel angry
Why? When there's a whole sky
Circles over and over again, all while there's a whole sky
Senseless practiced and programmed motions
They fly around and around again
All while there's a whole sky
All while obtaining a freedom I can only read of
The whole sky was made for them, yet they stay in their circles
Their senseless programmed circles
