WINDS OF WINGS 2015-04-08



« It is a flight of fools » said the joker to the king.
The mountains or the plains will stop them.
Their bodies will vanish in ether,
Their feathered costume will lie on the ground;
From top to bottom, tumble, cascade and spin they will.
A bubble or a balloon would travel farther on a prayer
Than this insect-like contraption of tubes and stuff
Which dreams are made of. In your head may be
The spirit could soar to such icy altitudes
Propelled by kerosene wine, and a headache you‘d get
For lack of oxygen. ”That is a fact”
The joker said.
