by Christopher Logue (23 Nov 1926 - 2 Dec 2011)
(written in 1968 for a festival in honor of the 50th anniversary of the death of the French poet Guillaume Apollinaire)
Come to the edge.
"We might fall."
Come to the edge.
"It's too high!"
COME TO THE EDGE!
And they came,
and we pushed,
And they... flew.
