A Poem a Day (289): Fins

 
Fins

These days we walk on air,
translucent drifts of white proposition,
suspended in our numb isolation,
view the world from distanced heights,
ourselves full-drawn upwards.
Here we stand with our resolutions
like kings surveying territory,
but covert neither greed nor power,
mere spectators as we are,
waiting for life to recover life.
If fish could swim through the skies
we could reach out and touch fins.
