Year of the Pingeon

followed the pigeons over then
away from the circle of men
took pictures of tourists

hey we're big fans of Starbucks
and we're big fans of freedom, too
so can we get those coffees for free?

see you're a beggar and I'm a thief
that means together we must be
one hundred percent cool

move on even if you don't know the way
the Pingeon says -- pigeons always
know when to go, they risk it

deliver messages, persevere, focus on
security, instinct, following their
voice to find the way home

used to think that words were too strong
now I want to peck at the pebbles
wear the shine on my wings
