Reflection of IllusionA Poem by Lane CGuess the bird was stupid For thinking it was actually singing And the sun was shining Stupid mind To think it had found something real Whisked away towards wanting to feel Watch the bird fly into a window Of a skyscraper And burn like a fire Against the pull of desire Tricked by the wind Tricked by the mind Tricked by the certainty within Watch the stupid bird soar into a sight it thought was real And crash it's dead weight Used again and again as bait Broken down by no more than an illusion An illusion of bliss Drawn on by a blue crayon Instead of a blue sky Trick Trick Trick Fall Fall Fall A trick and a fall The mirror reflected it's naive skull The knowledge hitting it like a bull Spare my weakened limbs Open soar Wings wide Too late Fearless to find Crashed and burned Split of a second Swallowed by the shame Its trick and lie Plummeting into tragedy Shattered into oblivion Deserving of this fate This trick With Earth it sticks Just a stupid bird A flight of clear direction Killed by the reflection... Of illusion
