Birds of a feather

Cannot fly when tied to a tether.

But as the Cat scratches at the cage

The bird rejoiced to avoid the beast’s rage.

Sing, you lucky bird!

Let the world know how free you truly are.

Why is it that sometimes the bird

Who hasn’t heard

The worlds news

Always escapes the worlds blues.

Oh well. What can I say.

While you free birds play,

Us in the cage will watch and weep

As the beast tears you to pieces.
