I stare at fate in the face
A poise as if we’re in-laws
I am free to dare unshackle myself
To seek a know, quench a voracious child
So I bend over coke like a supplicant
I have done worse with altar wine
In me I met a flightless dove
Ascending the stair-less wind
Trespassing heaven and hell
Levitated in bliss and downright misery
My dove is no dragon among pets
Happy regrets of knowledge sought
Sadly, this gleeful voyage's is no sojourn
To a flightless dove.
