A soul in flight soars above the grimy midnight,
mist only to be swallowed by audacious moonlight,
droplets. Heart, mind and artery
skip seamlessly across canvass wet and damp,
soaking up the wild blue mildew spot flood.
Chair yoga skeleton figure, quaking in mid-air,
much to the chagrin of startled night owls.
Baby moth or butterfly swept up by artic gusts,
the rainbow in my psyche whirls neon signage.
Blood red flash alert, wee small hours
traffic signal vaulter that I am.
Ghostly cry from rendezvous of past enchantment,
bony elbow echoes at the edge,
neck craning memoir distorted mirror,
a foghorn on mute
Many people will finally pray when someone dear is lost
Or when they've lost their way thus incurring a terrible cost
Usually spur of the moment if I can ever even get a chance
As thus this poem has been sent for you to maybe alter your stance
For think of a great swimming champion do they swim only once a week
For with just that little bit being done should it be the gold that they seek
Maybe even just sitting at the pool and just watching the others swim by
One would have to be a fool if you think that any swimmer can stay dry
Or a pole vaulter who jumps and goes soaring in the air
They have taken many lumps in order to obtain such flair
Not just a few minutes once a week or a couple times a year
Chances of winning would be bleak are the words in your ear
No, to be really good at anything it always takes a lot of practice
It's the effort you now bring as greatness always comes from this
It's staying in touch all the long day and right before you go to bed
Because that is really the only way that you'll ever hear what GOD has said
Kingfisher! Sculpturally shaped! Beam with a bold bright beak!
How splendidly your soft-strong somatic symmetry shines!
Awesome is the charm of your topaz eyes and rainbow quill.
Wondrous are your feet, tail, and poised plumage pattern designs.
Symbol of swiftness, prosperity, and agility
Fortune, patience, and abundance abide in your esse
Compassion, courtesy, and creative felicity
With each weather, season, and circumstance, you acquiesce
With paramountcy and persistence, you pitchpole from perch.
Which vaulter in this universe could fulfill such a feat?
Blue and orange! Moving motionless, like a sage, in search
Do you swingeingly oversee the lands-oceans-waves meet?
Infirm in form, you conform to any storm and transform
Is such nature, as though inborn, quilled as a human norm?

Greg Duplantis finished fifth in the Olympic trial,
But this pole vaulter would not accept that cruel denial.
He hatched an elaborate plan which was just his style.
He hailed heptathlon's Helena Hedlund with a smile.
His plan to make a vaulter was more than a fantasy,
Like the fabled fairy tale land of Atlantis. He
Married the mighty Ms. Hedlund, and prayed, mantisly,
And, so it was, God gave them Armand Duplantis, see.
Those who denied Greg would be sing a different tune,
'Cuz "Mondo", manifested the genes from which he was hewn.
Mondo vaults up to the sky, as high as a balloon.
Once, he even pole vaulted over a crescent moon!
Don't believe me? Watch him in Paris, on your TV soon!
