Suspended Animation

Okay, this is how I see it:

The finches are literary agents. 
Feathers unruffled.
Watching.  Judging.

The wing-flapping junco is me. 
Nearly manic with hopes and dreams.
Flapping.  Dancing.

Look at me!  Look at me!

But what the junco understands
and what I need to remember (again)
is that sometimes
the hunt
is 
suspended animation.
