Bird-brain
Birds are of inquiring minds,
watch their tilted heads
listening for answerers
to questions carried
in the wind.
They flit about chasing
after stolen dreams
to explore the mysteries
of life.
Perched together
they philosophize,
eagerly comparing notes
as they twitter out
their thoughts.
What observers take
for simplicity is their
prejudiced eye,
watching small flighty bodies,
their ears not equipped to
decipher the expedient tweets,
so they believe it senseless chatter.
But those fine-feathered
creatures exchange secrets
of our world and perhaps
seek to understand worlds
far beyond.
