FLIGHT

They lay still

In the darkness

Underneath the sky

One that had—

Not a star-

Nor any moonlight

They lay still

In the small

Mostly deserted city

One that had—

Not any joie-

Not any tonight

They lay still

In the shadows

Patiently waiting for

The return of—

Their one serenity-

Chaser of sunlight

They lay still

Until

The sound

Of the horn

Blasts forth

& they take off

Into the starless night

#FLIGHT
