FEAR OF FLYING


This wonder
this glorious moment
of release, of escape
of going beyond altitude, attitude, latitude...


This opportunity to be free
to be at liberty, to see
that there is something more than what I usually know...


This chance to be more
to be different
to have changed,
for at least an instant,
into a creature not bound by laws of physics
by sense of shame,
to be one who flies
like a bird
or a missile
whistling through the air
until the eventual re-entry
to earth
and the subsequent crash...


This time above ground
away from shadows
shining like a sun...
is going to make the time back on earth so much worse.
