Street Signs

Heist

I saw a simple picture
of mockingbirds framed
in a room other than my own.
So we planned
a movement.
So we planned
a transplant.
We didn't count
on any grad students
getting in the way,
smiling
as if she knew.
We ended
our journey unsuccessful
and in front of Mcdonalds
while Josiah used an ATM.
