A poem of 3 haikus about how humanity's ability to fly is not equal to a bird's.

They say that it's wrong:
that humans fly without wings
but we built our own.

                   Over trial and loss,
                   we found wings we could fly on
                   and took to the skies.

                                       But humans envy
                                       our feathered compatriots
                                       who were born of air.
