Blood and Feathers
by Chris Vaillancourt
Small birds crashed into the glass.
Splattered blood and feathers. In dying they won’t be born again. Soulless beings, energy drones. Preference will be given to those creatures covered in fur, Dressed in people clothes and growling in benign entitlement. Webs of spiders wait patiently for the death of fellow insects. Crawling, crawling,
crawling on the walls.
Brushed hair forsaking
natural oils.
Perfumed and bejewelled,frozen and warm. Small birds crashed into the glass. Splattered blood and feathers. In dying they won’t be born again. |
