Antithesis. (flight instructions for the good natured)

     
O' flight        
of        
wonderment        
        
s o a r i n g        
       
multicolored        
majesty        
splayed        
wide        
of        
open wings        
fly, fly        
       
hinted harms        
left upon        
tarred mouths        
       
[flap]        
       
confidence        
climbs        
carried upon        
rambunctious        
wind        
       
[flaps]        
       
chattering        
of plots-        
gushing        
agrees to        
garner        
lowly        
grace        
       
sloughs        
shedding        
charms of snakes        
       
gale forces        
at my back        
Oh,        
fly .. Fly ..  FLY        
       
higher than        
staggering        
gull        
       
[ardent flaps]        
       
as power        
twirls        
spins        
dives to climbs        
       
true        
aerial        
display        
of        
breathless finds        
       
in tricks        
midair,        
feats of        
uncommon        
bravery show        
       
[flaps.. flaps]        
       
in gains        
of altitude        
fly now... careful        
fast to slow        
       
slow to gains        
where momentum        
seems        
to surely burn        
       
fly until        
there's no return        
fly into        
the dream (be)yonder        
where        
missing is opposite        
of the constant buzzing        
foolish fodder        
       
views of        
checkerboard maps        
as perspective        
wanes      
       
last of farewells        
to what remains        
unhappy ants        
have begun        
to lose their gains        
       
[flapping becomes a constant state]        
       
       
       
fly        
       
       
       
       
                             fly        
       
       
       
       
fly
 
   
   
   
now
 
disappears
 
   
   
all  
the pain  
   
   
   
   
that  
each  
flap  
erased
in vain
