Thermic

Something romantic but
Requiring restraint
Rise and fall, precise
Execution as we moved
Into the next step without
Stopping, two chests heaving
Above a seven-league
Stride-such perfect agony
One learns to smile through
Ecstatic mimicry
Being the 'sine qua non'
Of American Smooth.

And because I was distracted
By the effort of
Keeping my frame
The leftward lean, head turned
Just enough to gaze out
Past your ear and always
Smiling, smiling

I didn't notice
How still you'd become until
We had done it
(For two measures? four?)-achieved flight

That swift and serene magnificence
Before the earth
Remembered who we were
And brought us down

Brought us down
Brought us down
Brought us down

The destroyer of worlds
The destroyer of worlds
The destroyer of worlds
The destroyer of worlds

The destroyer of worlds
The destroyer of worlds
The destroyer of worlds
The destroyer of worlds

The destroyer of worlds
The destroyer of worlds
The destroyer of worlds
