Poised to Soar
Abstract: This was written in Vermont, the conceit taken from William Carlos Williams' "Letter to a Young Poet"
Lyrics:
We sailed across the oceans
We drove our proud bow into shore
We climbed high into the mountains
We crouched and now we are poised to soar…
Gonna break the chains that bind us
bind us to the floor
Gonna set our dragons flying high
We’re gonna smile from the back of our eyes
We’re gonna dare to be wise…
