Parrot That Dances Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

Parrot that dances
to and fro
ah! in your routine
there be so much
a blotting of
the consciousness of
us humans
the stress
the worries and the angst
you
parrot that dances
to and fro
live in your life
a stable line
of quiet tranquillity
whilst
our line arises falls
arises delirium-like
and yours
your line
quiet and straight
almost all day
you garrulous rascal
dear and endearing
you dancing parrot
dancing to and fro
know you too
knowledge without pain
without the sufferings
of a human
you dancing king
you garrulous rascal
so endearing
