the ground <br />the sky <br />the wire <br />the trees <br />where it all ends <br />depends on the breeze <br />held on a string <br />fragile and thin <br />how hard it is tugged <br />depends on the wind <br /> <br />I stand on the ground <br />desire the sky <br />study the wind <br />needing to fly <br />seeing the trees <br />aware of the wire <br />fate left to wind <br />not love for this flyer <br /> <br />off now and go <br />damn the wire and trees <br />no strings attached <br />no fight left <br />for the breeze <br /> <br />9/9/09 9: 09am E.S.T.<br /><br />Stephen Warren Williams<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fly-my-kite-2/
