Helium Man
Sky bound poets with lofted feet
To the skies above in Paramount Seat
Upward floating to the highest seas
Through metal clouds and liquid breeze
Air of silence in ships in a higher realm
Manned by celestial pilots at the helm
Six million fathoms thru’ time and space
A quiet drifting in a timeless race
Feet off the ground ne’er to come back
Helium in the heart along skyward track
Man of dreams and feet of air
A maiden voyage in heaven’s glare
Looking down at rooted homes
At man made of flesh and earthly bones
At reality with feet on solid ground
At life with living so tightly bound
At poetry wrapped up in proper words
With no air to breathe in iron girds
To the skies ye mighty poets go
Shed thy wrap and ride in raptured glow
