[00:15.64] | Intent, a wooden lattice is placed |
[00:20.07] | feathers are waxed and laced |
[00:22.98] | reeds are stockpiled, patiently cast |
[00:26.68] | and curved, each longer than the last |
[00:30.31] | it is a perfect design, a boldfaced |
[00:34.13] | attempt to fly |
[00:37.06] | |
[00:41.12] | Back off the boardwalk, at the Midtown |
[00:45.17] | dressed in chiffon, dressed in her best gown |
[00:48.85] | an angel black as the color of her hair |
[00:52.47] | begins to sing and play and dare |
[00:56.02] | to form a perfect design, a boldfaced |
[00:59.94] | attempt to fly |
[01:03.44] | |
[01:07.32] | falling out of the middle |
[01:09.76] | the air begins to thin |
[01:12.85] | from light into darkness |
[01:14.89] | into the light again |
[01:16.26] | gravity conspiring |
[01:16.83] | with the forces of drag |
[01:18.58] | so nose up and farewell |
[01:21.01] | to those who lag |
[01:22.51] | and who didn’t blow the whistle |
[01:25.89] | took calculated risks |
[01:29.34] | who didn’t push the river |
[01:30.72] | who didn’t use their fists |
[01:31.66] | who didn’t go to great lengths |
[01:31.72] | nor to great heights |
[01:32.97] | you’re up in the air now |
[01:37.06] | Divine |

[03:16.49] | |
[03:17.43] | Moonshine drunk, you’re smug as the Sun |
[03:20.93] | larger than life, baby you’re the one |
[03:24.30] | with wings, rising over the wall |
[03:27.86] | falling out of the middle, away from us all |
