watch me fly as time crumbles

wings to penetrate
the buffeting waves of time
the engines of age

dissatisfaction
enjoyment seems so far off
... to wither away

putting my mind down
sedation is the best answer
forever asleep

tomorrow I will...
be too old to do what I...
have always dreamed of...

so I will glide on...
watch me fly as time crumbles
my wings are spread out

so I will glide on...
watch me crumble as time flies
in my old wheelchair
