If i could be anyone

I’d be that man from Medici

the one who looked up

at far off places in the sky

and using charcoal and paper

thought up wonderful flying machines

to take us to the moon and mars

Now it might take a few hundred years

to get it right

cogs and gears turning throughout the night

but watching my invention

rise up through the skies

much to the watching crowds surprise

and listening to wise one’s interject

would be for me – simply perfect
