Ever We Have Wings

If ever we have wings
And dare to discover
The celestial’s homes
That surpass our imagination,
Will we find that this
Gift to wrestle with the force of gravity
Will one day cause us calamity?

The chronicles of dark dangerous spaces
We found in dusty scrolls have
Drawn us to even defy the
Laws set out for us by the
Residents of the heavenly realms,
We chose freedom over reason
That even without wings we fly,
And challenge our crooked fates.
