FLIGHT OF ICARUS
As the sun breaks,
above the ground,
An old man
stands on the hill,
As the ground
warms, to the first rays of light
A birdsong
shatters the still.
His eyes are
ablaze,
See the madman
in his gaze.
Fly, on your
way, like an eagle,
Fly as high
as the sun,
On your way,
like an eagle,
Fly and touch
the sun.
Now the crowd
breaks and a young boy appears
Looks the old
man in the eye
As he spreads
his wings and shouts at the crowd
In the name
of God my father I fly.
His eyes seem
so glazed
As he flies
on the wings of a dream,
Now he knows
his father betrayed
Now his wings
turn to ashes to ashes his grave.
Fly, on your
way, like an eagle,
Fly as high
as the sun,
On your way,
like an eagle,
Fly as high
as the sun.
