flying away

Post by saw »

sometime soon
I plan to fly away
I've been thinking about this
for two years now
I figure if I concentrate
hard enough
I can grow wings
out of the middle of my back
much like a lizard
regenerating a limb
by focusing on it,
appendages should be a snap
it's not a whole leg or anything like that,
and when I go
no mushy goodbyes
just a pat on the back
like you give to an astronaut,
just a Godspeed !
and Big Ole Grin

and may you enjoy the exhilaration
from the tips of your gossamer wings to your toes

been having similar thoughts myself
as the half of the opened book held in my left hand
is so much thicker than that in my right.......
