Incongruent Flight PlanA Poem by jacob erin-cilbertoIncongruent
Flight Plan statements
of information the
lines deciphered one
interpretation is the bomb cities
of thought demolished so
many readers dead to literature's best
genre, poetry the
devastation is palpable the
mind sent to impervious destination War
heroes learn exactness Teachers
applaud, they
got it, they
survived so
many casualties but
they learned the secrets the
poet was carrying War
heroes get medals Teachers
are honored for their methods statements
of information like Purple Hearts given now, no
one reads anymore the
risk is too great that
mistakes might be made poetic
planes might errantly invade
unchartered skies something
new might be deciphered from
the misread dials Oh my
God, "Mayday, Mayday, I
think I am having an experience!" erin-cilberto 3/16/24 © 2024 jacob erin-cilbertoReviews
