rest in a bundle of cables
nestled between sharp teeth
just uneven wires
a bird with a real name
sharpened its beak on its nest
the kids grow up

plumage of violet
praised in mother father tongues
baptized in brine
the kids of 2005
raised in a bird’s nest
with violet plumage
said
not afraid of anything
except a day without wind
