Just Like Them
by louis gander I was a feather floating free with all my friends and family. I followed them. I learned to fly. I learned to lie and blow around this empty sky - ...just like them. In wind, I did a somersault - was told that nothing was my fault. I followed them. Without a care, I learned to swear and then accepted any dare - ...just like them. The wind had tossed me to and fro, first left, then right you'd see me go. I followed them. I learned to think. I learned to drink, precariously on the brink - ...just like them. The gusty wind had taken toll. I found myself in deep, black hole. I followed them. Like feather in the wayward wind, but learned that day that I had sinned - ...just like them.
