Rapture In Flight
I’m a two-winged poet
not just single-wing
And would never clip one
to fly into this wind
As one wing goes up
the other comes down
Until both work together
when flying most proud
A zero-sum landing
with talons not right
Only shortens the glide path
—and ruins the flight
(Villanova Pennsylvania: July, 2016)
