Pigeon reflection

By RibbonHeart

I saw a dead pigeon on the ground,
it's head smothered with oil and I felt I could relate, understand.
I saw a reflection of myself.
A diseased and unwanted pest, drowned by mankind's pollution... It made sense.

    ...'unwanted': so much sorrow in that word. I wonder abt the mystery in your unrevealed eyes...

  • A former member wrote: Very true... in many ways, I can link several meanings. Also, I see mankind as its own pollution, for it is the cause of many. Anyway, good write. Brief, but good...
