Ive taken up wings
as a hobby
it appears they offer more
than my aptitude can
ive mastered the technique
of flight
directly from the manual that
was perfected by
a faceless woman Ive come to know
rather intimately
however, I havent yet
stocked the bar for the journey
it will be long
and treacherous
and I will spend most of it
on autopilot
avoiding any contact
with birds
or other fugitives of love
the problem is always
the destination
it is never far enough
away
it is never close enough
to our hearts

This poem is rather interesting to me... I read through it twice before I comprehended it, but I like it. We all want to escape sometimes, but the here and now can be promising if we open our eyes to it.

Yeah.. I don't think that made sense. But it sounded good, didn't it? No? Okay..

Lmao, it's late, sorry.
