A darker shape
Flapping lazy through the further clouds
The great grey bird
Bigger far in distant view
Than geese above my head
The bird of myth and dream
The Sunset Bird
The Albatross of Hope
And I could see it in the sky
Why me - not they?
My need is greater than the rest
The need for hope
The need for just
One bird of Confidence
To carry lightly on its back
My raging fire of bleak despair
And share it with the sky
Returning later with its view
And my reply
