My Red
Lying sideways with its tray empty,The hummingbird feeder is loudly mocking me!“Look at us, twinsies!You are depleted just like me!”I’m so triggered and offended!Its witty comment has some truth in it,This empty feeder is way too daring,Comparing itself to me, a human being!Dusty, but it’s mostly bright red in color,Happy red always lifts my spirit higher, But today my red lacks vibrancy,Is the feeder reflecting my truth back at me?I may not be its rightful caretaker,But my sovereignty is my rig...
ying sideways with its tray empty, The hummingbird feeder is loudly mocking me! “Look at us, twinsies! You are depleted just like me!” I’m so triggered and offended! Its witty comment has some truth in it, This empty feeder is way too daring, Comparing itself to me, a human being! Dusty, but it’s mostly bright red in color, Happy red always lifts my spirit higher, But today my red lacks vibrancy, Is the feeder reflecting my truth back at me? I may not be its rightful caretaker, But my sovereignty is my rightful power, My red will not be forever empty, One way or another, I will revive its vitality!
