Dreams
Blown Apart at 60,000 Feet
Spiraling down from the empyrean
blue
Like a gutter-flung cigarette
stub
Or a vapor trail over winter
fields
Dreams blown apart at 60,000 feet
A spy balloon cannot compete with
love
In its ascent to impossible heights
An unexpected launch
a
sudden death
A fallen mystery lost among the ice
That brief encounter in the turn
of a dance
Shot down with only her disapproving
glance
