Thrown into the sky.
Adrenaline courses through my veins,
Wind gusts through my rustling feathers,
Wings flap viciously as I prepare for freedom.
My world is now panoramic.
No longer forced to stare at the same ocean,
Through the cross-hatching of wires,
Infinite crystal-clear views await.
Free to move further than,
Six inches of open space found in my cage.
I can fly around the world,
Explore the globe.
From the Great Wall to the Leaning Tower,
Over fields and oceans,
Skyscrapers and suburbs,
Soaring through the wind.
Free from the cage
That I once called home.
My world is now endless.
I’m free.
