Aerial Dreams

A collection of unknown entities
Not Angels
Not Saints
Not Human
Swarming all around me
Beckoning me into the sky
A miracle breaks all bounds
Wings bestowed I soar without abandon
Beyond the clouds
Up amongst the stars
So high I touched the feet of angels
I feel neither pain nor aprehension
Of this glorious gift
My pride takes on a life of it's own
The skies turn black and lightning crackles
In a flash
I am disavowed
My wings clipped in mid flight
I plummet to the ground
Into the waiting cesspool of humanities arms
Into the bile of my creation
Resolved to fly again
I fight against the anger and disappointment to
Attempt the heresy without regard
To the divine alteration of my lunacy
Of my pretentious ego
Minimal heights are achieved
Failure it seems will not be satiated
The tears flow in torrents
Washing away my exuberance for life
My mind races to uncover the answers
Of why I have been shunned
Where did I fault
I grow insane with panic and
The dreams stop coming
I fly no more
The entities that swept me up
Disappear into my subconscious mind
Never to be fully recalled
Save for remnants of joyful fits
They are forgotten
Like a dream
