PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

if i flap my arms hard enough the trees are mine to visit



and i know rooftops and antennae towers and the cornfield when i find them



if i stretch my mind like an elastic bnd i can see all the dreamers



and journey with them into darker places



if i drive fast enough over a particular overpass south of town



my chariot will wing itself over the traffic and land safely home



if i sleep too long one morning i shall miss the birds singing in the morning zoo



and miss the family shanpshots of drunk garbage men singing



if i move to new york and settle in central park i will catch its worms



and fly after its mosquitoes and drop acid and catch free rock concerts



if i wait facing east long enough through a cold night full of frost and owl hoots



i will baste myself with the sun that warmly rises just for me



if i don't hurry home tonight i'll miss dinner
