learning to fly
I desperately want
to walk on water
twice
beyond the one initial step of faith
that crumbles
first footing gained,
then lost
when the old ways reassert
making it clear
I will only hurt myself
in thinking
wishful, crazy, impossibilities
but the vision glimpse teases
from just beyond sight
just beyond my reach
and I keep walking
on passed doubt
to somehow ask
to somehow get back in that place of asking
for my return
when I take the 2nd
3rd and 4th steps
impossibly supported
on the waves above the depths
that block so completely all thoughts
of a way forward.
oh, to move from impossible surprised astonish
to a new familiar
making place
for the next faith glimpse
leading doubting feet
timid students
to learn to walk
to run
to fly
