Stretch your tie across your chest
Like a fresh-tarred street
And iron out your wrinkled hair
You sharpen all your shards
Shattered by your spent up dreams
As the sleep sun soon rises
Stands high and dry
As you fold your paper
Into an aeroplane
To soar so free and fare
To meet the sun in the broad sky
You complete your project perfectly
And climb into the cockpit
And you climb the staircase sky
Heat is boiling yellow
Upon the winged fingertips
Flame but sprouts like feathers
And creeps up your creation
Consumes you like a poem
Conquers all your flight
You crash onto the cursed ground
For failure has eaten you
I'm glad I read this poem. It's awesome. Your lines are action packed and filled with emotional rhythm. Great write.
