Boundaries of Heaven

Cottonwood sky Men hunger to fly We beat our waxwings Against this innocent wind Then, we ascend To the boundaries Of heaven What beacon of light Burst, as a flame, From the warm hands of Prometheus This morsel of bread Shall feed hungry men We fly, again To the boundaries of heaven
