wings (Remove filter)
flight ready
I will not let the weight
of old winds bend
your wings any longer.
Â
You will soar, not for escape,
but for discovery.
We will carve the sky
Â
into new stories,
where no shadow lingers,
and no voice drags you back.
Â
Your flight is not borrowed—
it belongs to you. So,
take-off in fresh winds’ lift.

Possibilities
In the vast plains of time, where the wind is lost
Man, with curious eyes, gazes at the horizon
And in the infinity of the sky, which stretches beyond being
Possibilities blossom, like stars in a distant night
What will become of me, in the paths of chance?
Which road, by the moonlight, will stretch before my step?
I feel in my chest the pulsing desire of a vast dream
But doubt, like fog,...

Plane Bike
Plane Bike
There was a man who was mad
He screwed wings onto a motorcycle
And went flying up high
The engine turned the prop
That was at the back
Â
And the front was a rudder
His rear passenger was thin
For his plane bike was slow
With a 125cc engine
Going from A to B
Â
No rush here 1500 feet up
Motorbike made plane
Land take the wings off
Ride where...

Wings
nothing's certain anymore,
I dont know what matters,
confusion paints my head,
my inhibitions lie in tatters
Â
I've found that special one
for whom I'd long yearned
to make up for those times
I'd had my fingers burned
Â
always terrified of women,
felt they were over-sexed,
averse to the physical side,
passion left me perplexed
Â
seemed safer to keep awa...

Bird Strike
Like fish out of water they cluster, gasping for
Herd immunity,
Scrap aluminium
Shadowing hot tarmac.
High on kerosene we were
Flying blind to Armageddon
Until a bird-strike did for the engines
Clipping our wings
Â
Wake up and
Reclaim your baggage,
Be humble
(Latest score: Coronavirus 6-Humanity 0)
Ground your brain, breathe deeply and
Learn to get by with...

Disney Fairy
Â
Nancy comes in my dreamsÂ
Like a fairy of Disney LandÂ
Have two wings and songÂ
Touch hearts with no bandÂ
 Â
Nancy comes from the moonÂ
Where the lovely stars shiningÂ
Calls me to join the songÂ
And to share her in the dancingÂ
 Â
Nancy, I love you so muchÂ
Can you call me only once?Â
Don't keep me in dreamsÂ
Just come in real to danceÂ

Sculpted
Â
You took my skeleton out of my body and molded my spine to stand straight.
With your skilled hands you took me apart and put me back together, like you had done so many times.Â
In one piece, after so many years - you taught me what it was like to stand alon
You sculpted my wings in perfect likeness of yours.Â
With each feather, you gave me hope and confidence.Â
I was an angel -...

Quoth Both
Â
My daughter brought a Jackdaw in the house
And grief introduced itself
Â
Melancholic and wounded
It hunched in the corner of the room
She fed him her loving eyes
Bread in tweezers
And named him Poe
Â
Then this sanctuary
Took him
She phoned every night
He was mending well and with the magpies...
He was in the biggest aviary...
He was set free.
But w...

Little Wing / Epidermis
Little Wing 1968
by Jimi Hendrix
Well she's walking through the clouds
With a circus mind that's running round
Butterflies and zebras
And moonbeams and fairy tales
That's all she ever thinks about
Riding with the wind.
Â
When I'm sad, she comes to me
With a thousand smiles, she gives to me free
It's alright she says it's alright
Take anything you want from me,
