Application for a Driving Licence

I recently came acrsoss this poem by Michael Ondaatje. Its a small and wonderfully written piece. Pursue this:

Application For A Driving Licence
Michael Ondaatje

Two birds loved
in a flurry of red feathers

like a burst of cottonball
continuing while I drove over them.

I am a good driver,

nothing shocks me.


Best wishes,
Ranjan
