I had a dream that these two blue jays were stalking me,
As I walked down the slippery alleyways.
But my heel slides backwards and as I dived for the ground
I stopped, Time halted and I look to my shoulder.
I begin rise and my elbows are pinching with skinny
Little toes and claws straining in my skin as I begin to bleed
From small pricks.
I move my face forward as I hover,
Looked down below and my feet tapped the lamppost.
Immediately, I bring my elbows down and we all jerked.
They squealed. Their crests vibrating aggressively.
But still the claws were digging in determinedly gripping.
Tears rolled down my face as did the blood down my arms.
Velocity increased, heading in a direction towards a forest with vast trees.
My legs swaying backwards and the wind in my hair become intense so I kick. Hopefully stalling them.
"cessez de vous donner un coup de pied chienne" they shout - Ceres flaring.
We reach a tree, a larch tree standing confidently.
I tiptoe onto a thick branch and try to reach for the trunk but my arms were still attached.
I look down dreading the height if I were to drop but it was pitch black.
My hands stretch out and I grab the trunk, two times wider than myself and the birds eject
There claws from my throbbing elbows.
"Tournez autour et regardez le ciel" They whispered softer than before,
Wearily, I turned around tracking my footing as I spun.
This wasn't my home town. I reached out to push away a branch.

I slip. Hitting my head on the branch as I go,
"Regardez ce que vous ont fait, des mises à mort de curiosité vous a fait pour ne pas savoir ? Petite fille stupide" They shout but it fades.
"Help.." I hear a flutter of wings then nothing.


Now I want a pair of blue jays (:
