In the desert, high canyon and steep steppe,


we wept and left footprints.


Cascaded through the dusk, and over the endless ribbon.



tied to the thrumming of the engine hum,


bump, the soundless power of our dynamo,



heavier than air


still, in flight,


nest maker, pointed flock tip



my shepherd, I will follow you down,


the steep steppe, because I am still curious,


wondering, left agape - aghast


the thrush and bump of our soundless,


hourless flight



I used to navigate using those constellations


you carried on your shoulders


the ability to cross vast expanses at high speed



now you paint your own feathers,


grow your own wings,


sky without me, in


discontinuity -


silent climb and fall of an atmosphere



only we discovered mystery -


oceanic undercurrents,


to our feeble flight


and fell
