Wings
August 6, 2010
Wings
They flap
They flutter and flap
They flutter
They flap
They flap with a snap
The feathers
They sing
They sing with the wind
They flitter and flutter
They sing with the wind
Bones
They shift
They contort and they snap
They shape
They shift
They snap and they crack
They crack and snap into place
The Wings
They groan
They snap and they moan
They snap into place
With a small shriek and a groan
They disappear into the skin
That used to be stone
That changed to skin
With a loud groan
