Winter Jacket by Martijn Benders / 1999           I wrote you a message           wanted to tie it to your leg           but when I opened the cage           you wouldn't move.           You wouldn't move one bit.           I tried to put on a disguise.           It didn't fit me but doves           have bad sight you know.           That's why they always long for home.           You just stared at me dumbfounded.           I started dancing around your cage.           You didn't even move your head.           You didn't even nod approvingly.           You put on your winter jacket           as I build a fire beneath the cage.           Maybe your house is not that far.           Maybe your house is not that far away.
