Parrot: Admiration

```

Parrot, my parrot,

Your high and constant admiration

For human voice and human wisdom

Compels you to leave your sky-vast freedom

And stay in a tiny cage of imitation's limitation.

Your imitation of your superior brother, man,

Endows you with the pride-light of satisfaction.

```
