As We Fly By

By Indi Jane

what?

what can I do for you?

the responsibility already

resting on these youthful shoulders

we’re weighed down

finally sinking into a new reality

we are yearning for

the weight to be cut up and

handed out like a perfect

afternoon snack

shared innocently on

our naptime mats

for no worries exist within

these doors

of finger paint and building blocks

the grounding foundation

of our future

so, what?

what can I do for you while so heavily sinking?

sinking under this imaginary surface

of disapproval and loyalty?

so be it.

sink I must to float away

into the land of the free

that consists of all we need

love for the passion to grow

individuation

for our wings can

no longer be clipped

a rainbow of birds

will soar above your

curled powder ways

stuck in your heavy

chairs of hierarchy

how can i do anything for oz?

hiding behind your curtain of fear

fear of your thirst for power

that well will dry up mid sip

and all you have are

colors in the sky

as we fly by
