Icarus
Icarus
Icarus was not foolish. He wasn’t disobedient.
Nor was he “enamored” by the suns radiance.
No longer a prisoner for deeds not his own,
He took to the sky, this power, his own!
Never again to live in tower or maze-
No son of a murderer, done with those days!
The choice wasn’t folly, but we can pretend-
All Icarus was guilty of was “NEVER AGAIN!”
