Favorite Quote:
Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible. ~T.E. Lawrence

Caged
Chirping for your entertainment
No room to fly free
Stepping gingerly
Clutching the thin wire
Pecking up the fallen seeds

Tragedy

Panic
Frenzied, hectic panic
Screeching
Flipping up feathers
Bent, broken, falling out

I know why the caged bird sings.
