Flight
Soaring, roaring,
Flying high
Fighting rough
being rough
To fly self propelled
Above the ground
so high
Would you to
with wings
Or by thought?
Bulky wings
with a wingspan longer
than you are tall?
Clawed wings
that cut friends?
Membranes stretched,
easily torn?
With thought where
a lapse of concentration
will send you to the ground?
No clear sign
or difference
to being in air?
Flight.
Above the ground
Not bound to earth
Free from troubles
to pet clouds.
Seeing all those
bound to ground
during a dive.
Stretching limbs
to prepare
The Grand Finale,
The final dive
Sweeping in
short a crash
To fly self propelled,
Above the ground.
Would you ask for wings
Or would you go by thought?
Rushing wind
soothing nerves
fast or slow
racing, tricks or
graceful glides
Solid wings
Stretching muscles
Loose thought
Wild flight
Flight by wing
Flight by thought
Both will learn
As must be done
For none may fly
Without teachings
Both will learn
Both will crash
Both will try again
If you could fly
by wing or thought,
Would you be a dragon
…
or a ghost?
