learning to fly

michael raven poems September 29, 2022 1 Minute

having
driven
off
the
edge
of
elevated
highway
overpasses
in
my
dreams
i
have
marveled
at
the
sensation
of
flight
as
i
plummet
in
slow
motion
to
the
earth

Personally, I love flying… unless it’s in an airplane, then I hate it.

  Assume parasail or hang-gliding. Haven’t gotten around to that experience yet, but may do it eventually.

    Nah, I just meant lifting up and flying.
    It’s a thing, Michael! Especially in my dreams!! 😄
