Possessing the Repossessed

in the midst of despair,
I rip out my heart and
give it to the blue birds
upon which to feast
since they are living
in my back yard;
hummingbirds flew
around the house
a time or two
as they were instructed,
but soon, had to eat
to build up lost energy;
cardinals sang to other
cardinals as my thoughts
were hurled up and into
the sky by creditors as all
that I once owned, now
belongs to other souls.
