| Notes | The speaker of this poem describes a small bird trapped in an airport terminal. The poem notably mentions immigrants and wanderers, through whose eyes the bird attempts the escape. The poem could be drawing a parallel between the trapped bird and migrants, perhaps, or people stuck in airport security. |
