Bird in the Box
December 14, 2023
The morning was filled with haze,
pastel colored grays matched the shade of the road.
I felt a thud from the front of my truck.
I looked at the damage and what I saw was unexpected.
It had damaged my truck but when i took a closer look
I found something wedged in the darkness.
A pop of color—a luminous blue filled with hints of orange,
embedded into the bland haze of the black and white colors.
I plucked it out but it was struggling to move.
I placed him into a dark brown box
and he lit up the box with color like the sun.
