the high altitude
jet plane
reimagining cumulous
with straightedge
vapor trails
is a phantom
whose presence
is unclear
i suppose that
everyone
who has fallen to earth
regretted in an instant
believing
in a phantom
whose presence
is unclear
leave it to the birds
leave it to the birds
i’m happy sticking to
the ground
firmly attached by forces
beyond my control
believing
in a phantom
whose power
is clear
leave it to the birds
leave it to the birds
