"aerodynamically" poems
Away amongst the dappled sky You see me racing swiftly by And harken to my engines cry The heavens ever speeding nigh For ****** will push me swiftly high Tis skyward that I fly! The jet stream takes me rapidly The form aerodynamically To the place I mean to be A bullet shot from barrel, me! So fast a blur is all you see… To lofty places I ascend The constellations to befriend And through the space which has no end I strike the fabric, make it bend Before spacetime itself I rend… I land in distant years behind My eldest kin I hope to find For in their strength they’ve become blind A warning have I in my mind “Beware, the future is not kind…” And when my purpose here is done They hear my mighty engines run I launch once more toward the sun My sonic blast, all hearing, stun Like bullet shot from smoking gun! Then back through rift I must return Slowing by my retro burn But soon a dreadful thing I learn A comet speeding struck my stern Stranded now, defeat I spurn! For though my state is more then grave Tis home my soul dose wholly crave And so a plan I start to pave A burnished sail my life will save For I can ride a solar wave. Now close to earth I soon will be Approaching far too rapidly For burning is my craft, yes she The one who swiftly carried me Crash! I plunge into the sea. My ship is recked but I survive Drifting eastward half alive When to an island I arrive And on said place, for life I strive. Then after months of living there Illness I take through lack of care But then a ship, tall sailed and fair Picks me up, off island bare And gives me drought of spirit ere Death claim me or age **** my hair. And when I am safe home at last Infirmity from me I cast Recalling engines mighty blast My journey to the distant past And galaxies rushing toward me fast! I write it down, just how you read And tell it true to all who heed And now conclude, for I am freed With brand new rocket, lightning speed What a wondrous life I lead…

4:52 PM EST, I am heading home. I-95 South, past Exit 30th The foggy pitch black sky opened And began pouring down thunder rain. In seconds, the highway was swollen under water. Then drivers shifted their cars to emergency mode And were cruising their shacking cars slowly and aerodynamically through the flood like a trained sailor on the deep blue sea Fighting with the violet wind and waves. Everything was pitch black, except for the dim Ticking and blinking Hazard lights. It's 4:54 PM. It stopped raining. The sky became crystal clear. Just like that, with a blink of an eye, In just two minutes, Everything changed back to normal again.
