mid-level clouds10.3.10i want to fly.everyone says dreams will always come true, as long as you don't give up. as long as you reach for the sky. as long as you keep doing whatever it is you want to do, you'll succeed. practice makes perfect, but perfection makes a load of people hate you. still, i want to fly. and if there's a will, there must be a way. maybe i'll follow these hawks; maybe that's the right way. i will learn to fly, even if it means hunters will mistake me for a bird and shoot at my wings, shoot me down to Reality. i will learn to fly, even if it means migrating in the winter to a place so cold nobody could live in-- a place so cold my heart would freeze-- in that case, i'll have to be a penguin. i will learn to fly, even if it means abandoning a full nest of eggs, a pretty hen, or a lovely igloo. even if it means getting confused for a falcon and scaring away the sparrows. (but i don't mind ; i don't like sparrows. sparrows taste like hope and despair.) i've decided. today, i will fly. today, i will waddle off a cliff and dive headfirst into a sea of fantasy and opportunities. and oh, all the fish in the sea is just what i need to smuggle in my beak while the missus is out getting fish from some river in the icier part of the tundra, the one with polar bears that i could fight if only i could fly. off the edge of the precipice, i spread my tuxedo feathers, and jump into the breeze. and i fall. (penguins just aren't meant to fly) |
