Open Window

Oh no,
Oh no,
An open window
I could fly far away,
Just take off and go
But how would I know
Which route to take?
The flight path,
The right path,
I’d be lost,
I’d be late.
My wings are so withered,
Withered and clipped,
I’d drop like a stone;
I’d stumble,
I’d slip
No.
Close it and let me be,
Safe in my nest
Cage me,
Enclose me,
And leave me to rest.
