singing sparrow.

good-night, starlight,
flickering streetlamps, flying from sight.
i wish i may, i wish i might,
beautiful ribbons, beautiful kite.
what is wrong? we're never right.
burn us with your thoughts tonight.
will you save us from these cliffs, these treacherous heights?
i'll sing as i fall, gestures through open air,
wings creating disturbance, glory unfair.
i'll sing this lullaby, sleep if you dare.
good-night, starlight,
i wish i may, i wish i might.
