Raven
I was born a wild bird
Glorious and free
Smart and crafty
Hording what I liked, you see
Injured by life’s twists and turns
They called it a kindness
Threw me in a cage
And reduced me to much less.
I mimic what they want me to
I do not fly away
I act like I am grateful
But this is not my way
I dream to spread my wings
Though I don’t know if I can
They’re wrinkled by my cage
I would not fly fore it is ban
So a domestic bird I’ll stay
This is the way
