Bird on a Wire

Folder: 
Dedications

The single bird on the wire
has a story.

 

The lonely pigeon
stands out to spectators
maybe because he feels different
within his own breed.

 

Maybe he needs some alone time
like we all do;
perhaps he is in a quarrel
with an enemy or a friend.

 

Stopped at a red light
I have a few seconds
to think about that bird
and why he is by myself on the wire.
