A little too close to the sky

fly

till you defy gravity

break all the rules

of authority

live by your own

directions

though a map may

come in handy

to mark where

you've already been.

follow the road

ahead of you

remember the one

behind you

what has been

has been.

what is, is.

what will be

we do not know

yet
