immortal waves

my disposition improves
when I think of flying over my life,
the eyes of a falcon playing
in the sky
oh yeah, that raptor imagination
allows me to see the infinite
like my homo sapien limitations
could never do
so I float above my old-man dreams
to ensure I'm not too far off course
my mind can part the clouds
my wings can lift me above all the shit-laced
humdrum executions
above the paralytic ennui
above the stagnant footsteps to the mountain
tops with boots that need breaking in
and I hit the ground, hiking
exploring my destiny from the cliffs
with the vision of an osprey diving headlong....
a missile..... into the immortal waves of time
the endgame new tricks for a crusty old dog
I read somewhere a long time ago, an artist
must re-invent himself every day, so my head
below the water washes away the cobwebs
my senses renewed in the plunge
