Shuttle Endeavor to Los Angeles today...

[Boltfan]

Into the distance, a ribbon of black Stretched to the point of no turning back

Flight of fancy on a windswept field Standing alone, my senses reel

Fatal attraction that's holding me fast Now, can't escape this irresistible grasp

Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky Tongue-tied and twisted; just an earth-bound misfit, I

Ice is forming on the tips of my wings Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything

No navigator to find my way home Unladen, empty, and turned to stone

A soul in tension that's learning to fly Condition: grounded - determined to try

Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies Tongue-tied and twisted; just an earth-bound misfit, I

Above the planet on a wing and a prayer, My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air, Across the clouds I see my shadow fly Out of the corner of my watering eye

A dream unthreatened by the morning light Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night

There's no sensation to compare with this Suspended animation - a state of bliss

Can't keep my mind from the circling sky Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I


...Thank you to Shuttle Endeavor and her crew...
