Nature and Man

Poem 20

Nature and Man

 

Skipping across smooth tiles

like an ordinary day outside

amongst the trees and blades of grass

This black bird didn’t care

about mall rules and people staring

at his brassiness and skill

thinking how the hell did he get in here?

Head in the air,  intrigued, unfolding silky wings, swiftly swooping down on an abandoned box of fries

causing quite a stir this unlikely star

And instead of shouts and screams

cell phones flash

But the fuss means nothing

Survival is everything in this human jungle
