F-18

i am bigger than you

and faster

and i can fly.

i take your father places in this world 

and places in his dreams.

he thinks about me when he is inside smaller things

slower things.

things that are not me, but he wishes were.

i am strong

and powerful

and dangerous.

and there is no seat for you in here, 

only him and those like him.

those trained to handle my power

those unafraid of moving faster than a sound wave

those who wish they could become wind itself.

those who want to be birds or demigods

hawks

eagles 

argonauts

but whose humanity is bound by something 

only they can understand.
