Icarus, soaring /
between the sunflower and /
the sun, hoping.

Wings
Melting or hardened, /
Icarus learned too late: /
“Wings will weigh me down.”

Icarus
I lack the sky /
and even if I could fly /
the birds would laugh.

Poised
Wide-eyed cat above,
poised in a dogwood tree.
Icarus waiting.

Patterns
“Wings,” said Icarus.
“Freedom,” offered Daedalus.
“Death,” decreed the Sun.

Flame
Pursuing pollen, /
Icarus could have been a bee, /
cindered by desire.

Flying
Charlie Brown’s kite flew. /
Icarus flew, too. Neither tree /
nor sun welcomed them.
