farm

had daedalus and icarus
been trapped on a farm
instead of in a cave
by the sea
they would be
slightly less famous
the cave
had access to
large eagle and albatross feathers
thus making perfect wings
on the farm
it would have been
unnecessary
to fly
perhaps
they would have dressed
as cattle instead
icarus would have run
too close to the fence
loses all dramatic flair
we are all
one cave removed
from our farms and fame
it would seem
