rescue the color green today
do it from the back of a whale
pretend you invented the iceberg today
freeze its salt in your pail.
behave like you’re a super hero
pretend your bones don’t bend
enjoy the dream of gravity zero
but know that in the end
your days are labeled; they have a total
your feet will touch the bottom
your notes are high and intermodal
yet still you’ll have to slot them
for though the sky is blue and merry
the wind so gentle on your face
you are not really that high charged faiery
but a spoke in this wide human race
so grab your glory on that stage, if still you feel you must
but know that in this rusting age, your wettest dreams will rust
