BRAVE GREECE

Daedalus and Icarus by Charles P. Landon

Daedalus and Icarus

On the verge of the abyss

Take a leap of faith,

Against the odds of their myth,

Against the advice of the raptors,

And jump onto paradise

To save their enslaved

Mother and wife.

They proudly left behind

Their burdens and blames

And now they glide light

Through winds of disdain,

Through purgatory’s clouds

Amongst Europe’s cheers,

As they escape from their funeral,

As they escape from their fears.
