A seagull tired of flapping its wings

got on a train without a ticket

It chose a risky ride

perched on top of the coach

It could flap its wings anytime

and fly back naturally

but the ride

the fresh air

the rush of velocity through the wind

would be beautiful

Maybe it needed a torque to fly

a little push

to shrug off its laziness

a little motivation

to reach its destination

without much effort

And even when the train stops

if it poops on someone at the platform

it wont have to face the trouble

of standing in court
