Flight

As in take off, soar, defy
       the givens of gravity—lover
of warmth, expanse, and
      height, yet besotted with 
the charms of DIY.

Or as in sweet 
      to semi-sweet then dry,
swirling mouthfuls 
     before emptying the glass
into some kind of spittoon.

Any child can fold  
        and crease, pitch and aim.
But it's the air 
        skimming the paper wings
that make it work.
