as sure
as the morning
there you are -
decked out and dapper
in full length scarlet plume -
relieved
by your sighting
do you worry like I -

feathered friends
tell me
you’ve already been warned -
so
as a well-dressed
flashy target
in an ugly material World
I wonder -

are you
really that stubborn -
or just -

vain
