Listening To The Ceiling... Poem by Sebastian Soberania

Listening To The Ceiling...



the pigeons have transferred
in that nook above the ceiling of this
house of
indecision,

they keep on cooing
as though
i am the guilty party of this
mess

and they are not moving away
unless
i say my apology
to the indifference of the
the ceiling and the
beams

i stand up and scream
i owe no one
and no one owes me

some pigeons start to fly away
and perch upon a tree
waiting that i look at them
and say something

i owe no explanation to birds
this is my house i own this ceiling

dusts are always scattered particles
settling where the wind takes them

and i am now one of them
the pigeons feel betrayed.
