First off, I have to admit I'm not entirely sure what this poem is about. Not a criticism, just my own ignorance. I'm taking a stab and thinking maybe some sort of insecticide that is sprayed, a "necessary evil," but harms the birds?
If this is true, I like it. It's a nice contrast between the carefree and melodic nature of a songbird and humanity's struggle with "necessity."
I suppose the king could be any powerful human; the vaccine could be any necessity that considers utility over beauty. Could be way off though.
