Silly Bird

Head 
hung
beak on chest
 
Eyes 
closed 
yet no rest
 
Tears 
fall 
to the floor
 
Caged
bird
eyes the door
 
Closed 
in
from all sides
 
Tick 
tock
her time she bides
 
Waiting 
watching
any minute now
 
He'll 
come
on the prowl
 
Feathers 
ruffled
on the defense
 
Cage 
rattles
thrashing begins
 
Minutes 
hours
pass them by
 
Deeper 
lower
doth she fly
 
Doomed 
life 
on the floor
 
Opens 
eyes 
towards the door 
 
Shock 
gasp 
opening thin
 
Door 
locks 
from within.
