'a fairy in checkerboard delight' timothy r gates, 7/6/2008

butterflies
not flies
still fly
glide alongside
fairies slide
my delight
their ornery horniness, but not
yet so
prompts my attempt to
fly, too
two
i don't mind falling on my face,
fairies come to my rescue
chuckling at my ridiculousness
at me
with me
their fire i feel
time to fly, again.
