“Wings”

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”

Poised

Wide-eyed cat above,

poised in a dogwood tree.

Icarus waiting.

“Flame”

Flame

Pursuing pollen, /

Icarus could have been a bee, /

cindered by desire.

Haiku and photo: “Flying”

Flying

Charlie Brown’s kite flew. /

Icarus flew, too. Neither tree /

nor sun welcomed them.
