Starlicide

a coat of stars 
on a shiny night you 
wear
and thrive in #'s (almost)
everywhere
Mozart taught you to sing
everything
recite poetry
and greet those
who stumble in
you are precious
to me
yet so hated
they patented your name
for poison
and raged 
Starlicide
now
half of 
what you were
your murmurations
still
smoke the sky
just not here 
this year
my darling 
Starling
