Trapped!

Fluttering and struggling did it try to

escape

The four walled place, home they say

Food, water and company did not

compensate

For the loss of its ability to seek out its

fate

To feel the breeze rustling its mane

To feel the gale fighting its pace

Oh when will my body be free of this

torment!

For it is better to feel my soul than to

suffocate

Were the thoughts which fill the

magnificent one

For what can even the greatest do

When trapped by the hunter's cage!
