friend, Elanore,
an ornithologist,
what's the equivalent
of a mammal
limping
and a bird
with a bad wing
flying.
do they fly in circles,
favoring
one wing
over the other, like
we do
with a sprained
ankle.
do they wince
as they
fly
across the park,
going easy
on the bad wing leaning
left
or right?
she looks at me, and shakes
her head.
you really
have too much time on
your hands,
don't you?
