I give you back the wings
that I of Icarus have very little
I'm like pigs
I don't know how to fly
I'm overweight
and thighs too thick
these feathers won't make me
stay in the air
I don't look like any
of the feathered beings
for that very reason
I give you back the wings
and I fall forever
on some lost beach
on the coast of the Dead Sea
from the wet sand
I can watch the blue sky
