A feather was plucked
By my Father
Each time the previous
Grew back from mild falls
But when I fell completely down
All the feathers that He plucked
Were tossed into the fire
Before mine eyes
So I’d never fly again
And fly again I never did
Now, I live among you
A beauty without wings
Retaining my face
Without the glow.
