Shattered glass and winged rocks
A poem on how to deal somewhat with the hand that was given to you.

I was given wings to fly
But placed below a low glass ceiling
Now what words are to describe
The way that i'm felling

All day and all night
seeing others in flight
through my dirty glass
I thought to myself
This too shall pass

But pass it didn't
The air out beyond the glass
I can't to flap my wings there
So I traded them in for rocks
That take my thoughts everywhere
