BIRD

BIRD

bird asked me
about human intelligence

wondered how
when we got wings
we became
such murderous beings

dropping two thousand
pounds of ultra high explosive
on a child lest
she grow up
not having been
denied the experience

to think for herself
speak
    the truth and other
incalculably bad things
