lyrics

oh my word
injured wing
little bird
venture home

the sea’s waves sharpened and the nests fell out of the trees
mothers separated from their kids
“heroes” brought them to corners to keep them from the wind
but the family connections hit the skids

and as they sat worrying
the gloves came on
feathers plucked and sheared
and amplified what feared
center of some meaning
but not to little wings
too busy severing a lifeline
to hear them try to sing
once more for you
