Killing Carolina Wren | Poetry | May 9th, 2025. 11:03am

He said to me

"I woke to the sound of Carolina Wren singing outside of my bedroom window."

After the hunt, I took one good look at myself in the mirror.

"You are the most stupidly jealous person I have ever met."

Pointed finger stabbing at me.

Puffing up my own plumes after realizing the song woman... was just a bird.
