It's illegal to catch a wild bird and keep it as a pet.
Lately I have had the desire to capture a wild bird and keep it as a pet. The plumage is so much prettier than any bird purchased in a pet store, their songs so much more beautiful.
But unfortunately for me, due to the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, my dream of cohabitating with a wild bird will not come true anytime in the future.
I think I am going to instate a treaty act of my own, because this bird is no longer going to be caged. It's unnatural, horrific, and leading to dire consequences. This flightiness is uncontrollable. How does a person deal when their heart is not with their body? When their mind wanders mountains and forests?
I think that I must be obligated to attempt to live in a caged aspect of society, holding firm to structure and rules.
But then Christ says no.
And I don't have to be like everyone else. And I don't have to feel ostracized. And I don't have to feel caged.
Because he gives me hope. And he gives me freedom. And I will make it, with unclipped wings.
Praise the Lord. I can fly.
