“first solo dive, huh?

how are you feeling?”

“absolutely perfect”

he told him

“okay,

you got this”

“i know”

“any questions?”

“no”

“okay, go!”

he jumped

and was floating

high above the city

high above the offices

high above the schools

high above the debts

high above the people

so

high above the

goddamn people

he would have to

join them again

one way or another

he undid

his parachute

and let the pack

fall along side him

he kept falling

laughing and smiling

faster and faster

until he rejoined them
