When I Was Young the Silk

When I was young the silk
of my mind
hard as a peony head
unfurled
and wind bloomed the parachute:
 
The air-head tugged me
up,
tore my roots loose and drove
high, so high
 
I want to touch down now
and taste the ground
I want to take in
my silk
and ask where I am
before it is too late to know
