Sparrow

Sparrow carries away the souls of the dead.

Sparrow brings the souls of the soon to be born.


Sparrow circled three times as I walked.

I stopped walking and Sparrow flew away.


Sparrow circled three times at chest level.

I stopped breathing and Sparrow flew away.


Sparrow circled three times slowly, wrapping me with invisible string.

I stopped unraveling and asked Sparrow if she’d stay.


Sparrow is Aphrodite’s bird.

True love and spiritual connection.


I spin myself tighter inside Sparrow’s string cocoon.

Sparrow says keep walking.

Sparrow says keep breathing.


Life and death and love.

Sparrow says they’re all the same.
