Congratulations On the Technicality

you are warm like i
light in their eyes
bright with a fuel
a desire to consume
more than a yule
heating and grew
repeating on new
breathing in air
sweet from a wind
taken within
alas alike
but just not quite
i can fly
beyond the sky
where you would die
the earth compressed
might make you depressed
if you felt too
but you are  the same, 
even if blue
use what you can
choking when done
i choke only
to clear my lungs
im fragile 
yet can travel
in ways your play
to this day 
would unravel
