Tie me

to the wind,

setting me

free from here

where these

untethered arms

still will not flap

into flight,

here where

something

tighter than rope

binds me

to the safety

of solid ground.

 

And wind,

take me

everywhere

my feet will not

travel,

take me above

and around

the widest world

you can find,

take me far

away from

everything

I think I know.
