The bird's wing is broken
And now she sits on the ground
Vulnerable to any attack
Life's last subway token
As the cat moves without a sound
The bird's wing is broken
But her spirit still stays strong
Nature would have the weak killed
But she will fight against the wrong
This would be her last swan song
The cat moves in for the kill
The mynah bird cries loud and shrill
As claws , talons, feathers and fur fly
One has to leave or the other will die
In the end the bird alone lies
The cat runs away frightened and hurt
Never had such an unwilling prey
The bird on the ground bleeding stays
She's won the battle, fought death awhile
It won't be long till she walks the long mile
