Dog Sized Bird

Have you seen me lately?

I am the dog sized bird on the tracks

I have an unhealthy handful of options

And a couple of trains on my back

I'm picking at remains of other lives

And watching colors and tragic looking passerbys

I am the dog sized bird

Picking at bones

Losing my nerve

Constantly calculating

There's time between trains,

I know There's time between trains,

I know And a right moment

To find a new set of tracks

There's time between trains

I know exactly how long

But I'm testing my conviction

And I may be primed for picking at any time
