Poised for flight (Day 1193)

Gilded years 

   of fellowship and obligations

      unyielding   uncommonly cold

their ancient half-truths 

   cracked   sculpted 

      into uninvited answers

elaborate  wilted-flower words

whispering fog feathers 

   poised for flight

      betraying more admiration 

than wanted 

      or offered   indulging 

         in orgies of wanton opposition   

all the while   objecting to revision

always and ever  to no avail
