Valentine Xavier:
There's a kind of bird that don't have any legs so it can't alight on nothing. So it has to spend its whole life on its wings in the air. I seen one, once. It died and fell to earth. And its body was light blue colored. And it was just as tiny as your little finger. And it was so light in the palm of your hand that it didn't weigh more than a feather. And its wings spread out that wide - and you could see right through them. That's why the hawks don't catch them; because, they don't see them. They don't see them way up in that high blue sky near the sun.
Lady Torrance:
What about in gray weather?
Valentine Xavier:
They fly so high. In gray weather, the hawks, they'd get dizzy. See, these little birds don't have no legs at all so they have to live their whole lives on the wing. And they sleep on the wind. That's what they do, they just - they just spread their wings out and go to sleep on the wind. And they only alight on this earth but one time - it's when they die.
