First
the twinge of bone:
feathers attach
painful, yet
somehow transcending
ground and
the now-ness of temporal agony.
Skeletal complexities fan – now in, now
out, now soar: old age flaps, youth,
renewed, soars
to cloud, to wind, to heights
of grace floating
on broken,
fledgling, resurrected
wings.
