I saw a magpie, stoic
on a bare branch against a blue canvas
watching the world move beneath him
he did not flinch
and nor did I
at the thought of loss he might
be hiding in his dark beak
one, for sorrow
I couldn't help but feel the breeze
and the gentle weightlessness of fear
lift
it does not hold me,
anymore
