Nest

Michelle Fulkerson

a bird has taken up residence in my mind.
she has created a nest out of strands of hair
compulsively pulled from my head
one by one
till bald patches mark me as
unlovable.

she cut my crooked wings
and wrapped them in twine
so I couldn’t fly away.
I am trapped inside my mind
clawing to be free.

do the eggs always await
a poacher’s hand?
or do they simply fall out of the nest,
too young to fly?
