And She Has Flown
She's better than me
and she knows it, with her
two solid wings and a
puffed-out chest.
Sitting in a nest of the finest
Norwegian wood, she's cast
a spell on me I can't quite
decipher or reconcile.
I flutter clumsily, wings
withered by time and
circumstances unkind
though she rarely takes pity
on my less-cultured frame.
I know what I know and
can't help myself but be awed;
yes, I'm flawed. She is my fault.
The nest I'm in bears no eggs
and my once-powerful chicken legs
barely balance me as I
gather myself to watch her
ascend. Soaring as if
to never land again.
It lights me afire and I
burn myself to comprehend
a way to make myself seen
as to be so admired like
she is by me but that's
when I smolder. Over
and out, no way I can show her
what my love's about from
this exquisite distance
in her Norwegian wood.
"Isn't it good?" Answer her,
I wish I could.
