icarus

his are broken.
he cannot fly.
he scrapes along the bottom,
skinning his knees as he begs.

    Hmm... honestly, I think your other work is much more colorful and interesting. Even so, though, there's something cryptic about this one that puts it above the average poem. It doesn't spend time *trying* to be mysterious, it just *is*. I like that.
