it's all about the aeroplanes (Free verse) by Patsy
En route to Vancouver
i let the sunrise chase me.
Come to think of it, you could be
that way.
You are a plane ride
where the back wheels
remain
perpetually grounded.
Sometimes you are the red scar across
the sky,
sometimes the one-eyed vision of almost
and i keep worrying i'll over-fly,
i'll just wake up and wave goodbye
to Juan de Fuca Straight
and that beyond the ocean is
only the sky
because
gravity fails
occasionally.
Did i laugh all that out of you?
The clouds are a continual shelf
involved in a desperate attempt
to cover up what we've done wrong.
But i saw the mountain folds
where they peeked
and i was breifly numb
of the manner in which
land abused land
land bruised land
what it is, though,
must be different.
All of history- physical,
whimsical
owned or public
is an adjustment-
and i want to compete with you
to peak the highest
paradigm shift.
