gravity pants

Gravity pants, trailing after us 
as our feet fly scudding over hills and downs,
as we laugh like music on contrail staves 
with notes and trills writ in cirrus clouds.
We have lost ourselves in melodic line 
as we fly catching up to this last sunset 
flashing back towards day, to spend it 
again. Together at last, we have time
to bend and moments to live 
yet another way. We defy 
the rank order of calendar run. 
And trailing after us: gravity pants. 
We will not be going back 
to put those on.
