The Owl's Flight.

Hoot Hoot, fly away.
Disappear from love too heavy
and keep your mind from running astray.
Keep your wings in constant flight
with feathers trying to stay afloat,
and never stop in fright
because the scavenger is there.
There.
Look.
Circling the clouds with his relentless beak,
savage claws and beady eyes,
looking for carcasses to feed.

Hoot Hoot, fly away.
Before the black whirlwind hits,
and you feel like you can't stay.
By then the black hole has sucked you in
and you can no longer breathe.
Breathe.
In. Out.
Fly away from the vicious lies
and guilt traps that the scavenger set out.

Hoot Hoot, fly away.
They are closing up on you.
Let your weary heart beat faster
while your little heart cry harder.
They say," Don't run away from the love you know.'
But they don't see.
They can't.
Their eyes are covered in black schmuck
and you are the only one free.

Hoot Hoot, fly away.
One more flap.
Before you get stuck in the cage
of fur animals with black schmuck
choking their breaths,
while you can only look
at the blue sky so near within your reach.
Reach out.
Quick.
Before it's too late.

Hoot Hoot, fly awa-
