fine feathers

My word,
they say fine feathers
make fine birds.
My hair falls where you left it,
clouded about my shoulders
and it is a spider silk shawl,
that you would spangle
with the stars
you see in my eyes.
I am no bird
be it of paradise or prey
I am no fine creature
save when you fix your look at me,
drink in my sigh,
and blame me
for the kiss I never planned.
