If The Rain Were Just Like Oil

If The Rain Were Just Like Oil

A Poem by Ivy

I calmed my wings on sharp corners to give myself time to make the
lamination machine work. The birds sat silent for the few minutes it
took to encase my body in a thin mask of plastic. The silhouette of a
dog appeared in my bedroom window between my blinks, and an author
coaxed characters from her pen in the house next door.
