cockpit flyer
twenty plus years
in attempts
to play through
game started as a boy
and in this dream reality plays through
each day
is getting longer
climbing the stairs
under power
arthritic replacement knees
a man now in a race
with Death
adding hours to his life
up in the air
controlling little
more than tin cans
pieces of artistic symmetry
every time settling in
to captain’s chair
looking down an all
he passes left below
just to get that much higher
in the day of final crash
