The mockingbirds
in the woods
biting at stones
the mockingbirds
scream like newborn
in the spreading branches
the mockingbirds
crawl into mailboxes
and die in the heat
the mockingbirds
soar through backyards
grey black forever
the mockingbirds
fantailed jesters
crown on the winds
the mockingbirds
anthem of feathers
harlequin harlequin harlequin
the mockingbirds
bomb black into blackness
caw caw caw
the mockingbirds
dandelion jewels
as it starts to rain
the mockingbirds
jape on lightheart
heart of the medallion
the mockingbirds
feathers falling out
of an eggshell wig
