THE HIGH SKY

In the high sky Where the air is weak And full of strangers Nothing lives for long Only gypsy-footed drifters Come here on their way To who knows where And this place can only be reached Without anchor or rudder Nor even a moral compass Riding on clouds of smoke And it's such a long way down Through falling-about laughter And blood in the gutter                                               By Phil Roberts
