Literature Text

Sadness is the sparrow
that warbles
from hunched shoulders
with ruffled wings,
leaves a feather falling
like memories on the breeze,
and flies away
to find a different perch
until the tears
return.

Reminds me of a poem by Emily Dickinson, "Hope is the thing with feathers," only this would be morel like its opposite. They'd make an interesting pair!
