Westward Daydream 12/17/2007

demanding what one is unprepared for
opening libations not ready to imbibe

East of Colorado and west of Ohio the landscape flattens
the dance of life gets focused to 2 genres
square and line dancing
both great enterprises
but do not encompass the realm of possibilities
some people know they want to dance
but their bodies move to different music
in different ways

unfledged, but only for current surroundings
mental or geographical, I am not sure

with a gentle up breeze of warm air
from the woods of Yellowstone
ones first flight can be joyful

With a cold down draft of frigid air
from the rooftop of Woodbury
the feeling can be quite different

in Yellowstone no one cares if you fly
only that you do what feels right for you

in Woodbury, the streets are filled
crossed arms and expectations
the roof slippery from frost
the glares hide nothing
it is time to fly...
now


Flights to San Fransisco $650


unfledged \uhn-FLEJD\, adjective:
1. Lacking the feathers necessary for flight.
2. Not fully developed; immature.
