If I could see airwave visions and drift on a draft
I'd probably feel like I do when I feel it's true, it's true:
love IS the glowing light inside of all of us
lifting us up, making us hope another day
commuting on congested roads, red light stalls testing patience
look up at the communities of birds on the wire
black birds, huddle together
why on THAT wire and not another?
I always wonder at their choice
is it for conversation?
or are they a flying V group?
Up, up, and away they travel as one pulsating body of black birds
looking up as I do I notice the places they sit
all these years wishing to fly, I envy them the high perch
to see everything below from up there
higher than a tree, higher than a roof-top
we had roof-top gardens in the city I grew up in
tar-covered patches and potted plants
but I loved the view
even with the laundry lines a kid could feel free up there
in the sun
