a bird reigned the sky that night
an eagle, to be specific.
and i, as a helpless human being,
i stood there on the ground
craning my neck to watch that bird.
it glided through the night,
over the hills
over the valleys
over the forests.
that night, it became king.
not king of the world,
but king of the land.
for it was not a creature of water
but of land.
and so it reigned,
and everything below gazed up
at this magnificent sight
at the eagle soaring through the night.
