John Burnside
For a bird, especially for the more musically inventive, song is the defining characteristic, the primary way by which it knows itself and is known by others. To lose its species song is to lose not just its identity but some part of its presence in the world.

I grew up very differently than a lot of other people...It is only with the heart that one can see rightly...People see me now and ask if I'm still running...There is nothing so strong or safe in an emergency...When all the world is overcharged with inhabitants...Stay away from the window...
