Another prisoner, caught like me,
unable to fly, unable to flee.
My wings are gone, my eyes blind.
Hidden in a place no one will find.
Wings beating against the cage,
crying out in a desolate rage.

This is a great piece, I think it sums this up so nicely and with brevity here, well done. best to you in the contest

I can't figure out how to see the pic these words go with, but judging the text alone its very nicely written. The repetition of the sounds and structure was almost like a wail (in a good way of course). Also, not that it's of huge importance, but the title is one of the best i've ever heard.

WONDERFUL!!!!
Your touching words go so beautifully with the pic and have such deep meaning.
