ICE
BY LUKE DULEMBA
I know I
Cannot comprehend the
Elegance of a lustrous eagle
I can watch her take to the
Calloused sun, soar
Elongated beside the other
Immaculate, lustrous eagles
Can you hear their calling?
Everlastingly radiating from the
Industrial
Cities to the
Enveloped beaches
I know no beauty like that of an eagle
Candescent with pride
Eloquently rolling gritos off the vibrant muscles of tongue
Independent vertebrates shooting rays of pure love
Calling to
Each other one love song by one dance
I never understand why their nests are debate subjects
Can someone
Explain the harms of their eggs?
I know my head is human, though my body is bird, too
Can you hear their cries?
Even though,
I know you don't want to, but
Can you spare the
Eloquent, Immaculate, lustrous eagle
I want her home, please
