"__________ is never granted, It is earned"




Here’ is to hoping my apology has reached you in the highest spirits on earth
To do so – I have attached this telegram to “Pathenia” – my most sincerest of birds
She is my most prized possession in this world…
A messenger pigeon, I rescued from the cliff’s off this perch
Purple ribbon stitched in her wing that’s been clipped to its nerve
She is unable to take off in this turbulent weather, without the assistance of her handler
Simply put, it sits in its cage – whistles & chirps
Nibbles the kern...
Pecks at her sisters - until they get anorexic and filter into the richness of dirt.

The pigeon tried splitting the coop – flying out of its cage, soon as it opens – but it wasn't quick on the turns
It flapped its wings - but there wasn't any power behind its movement – just the whiff and a whirl'
As A Handler I was just as concerned as you were – I couldn’t let IT go out like that... all injured and hurt
So I administered a pain reliever into her stiff joints and it lifted her
Then they equipped her with sharper claws, her tips were scissored -
And her feathers flourished into different colors; became her signature
the Pigeon learned how to fly home cause' the ozone emitted an invisible signal for the pigeon to return
The pigeon swerved over the forest fire – while acre upon acre of the villages burn
After IT flew thousands of miles, it helps it self to a delicious worm from the ditch of the curb
The worm viciously squirms
The Pigeon continues on, with it's twig in it's beak; creating this nest in the infamous birch
The Pigeon sits on top of the eggs; until they have hatched - and the chicks are heard
An Eagle lands on the branch; its beak; full of rodent meat guts twisted with fur
Her baby birds are still in their shells
The eagle cracks them with his talons
and drifts off the perch
The hatchling tries out his wings, such an innocent twerp
The wind picks up and the conditions get worse until it becomes too dangerous for a beginner bird
Met with resistance; the Pigeon attempts to pick up where its left off – but it is deterred.
Determined to get the apology to the AOWL - the messenger pigeon will not give up until it is served

The handler sends out the signal and the bird takes the trip in reverse
Over the forrested fire that has been put out and the two victims confirmed.

And from there, It is a blur -

I must apologize to those; I was an inconsiderate jerk
I must apologize if you were irked by my decision when you were just on the verge
I ask that the Gentleman of the jury, accept my apology, let's get this adjourned'
I should’ve never asserted myself over you by stripping you of your insignificant worth
AOWL MODERATOR is never granted, It is earned

As for the pigeon, it went on with its search

Because this apology letter never made it –

you just got shitted on by the verse
