Black Dawn

T’was a black dawn
   that morning   you left
that day   of storming winds  
   when God
   flicked his finger
tossing you   from his sky
planting you   deep
   deep   down      
   in the dirt of earth.

The earth   you once
   upon   a time
   in that when   of then
   of   times before
when you   would fly
   fly and soar
   cruise your plane 
   high   above
beloved earth below.

The earth
where now
you live
below.
