Bird swoop, fly, chatter on porch rail
Mighty wing, tiny beak, dipping tail
Beady eye, sleek frame, delicate feet
Strong chest, and a sweet fluffy cheek
I stoop, cry, pound on porch rail
Stupid arms, big mouth, round at the tail
Bleary eye, big frame, hideous feet
Droopy chest, and an ugly, wet cheek
Goddess, please hear me, make note
Come, take me now, save me the rope
All I want, all I ask, is one little thing
Bring me back as a bird that hunts other beings
Let me swoop, let me fly, sit on a porch rail
Give me wings, deadly beak, and a beautiful tail
Keen eyes, sleek frame, dangerous feet
Strong chest, a mighty fierce screech
Clasp talons and fall through the air
Holding onto my love, my mate, without any care
If for only one season, thus I do wish
To be able to dive and catch my own fish
White head, dark feathers, bright yellow legs
I want to know how it feels to hatch eggs
Be free, struggle but able to kill
I want this life with all of my will
So Goddess, take mercy and come
Before I loose all chance, leave by a gun
