Fly Into The Sun

  • Mid-Pacific
    Location unknown
    Fred out cold
    Passed out in the back
    And down below, waves

    I'm climbing into the cockpit
    Smiling for the photographers
    "Hey! Lady Lindy!"
    I don't even have my own name

    I'm going to fly into the sun
    Drop down through the air into the sea

    Full fathom five thy father lies
    Those are pearls that were his eyes
    Where did I get this obsession to hurl myself against the sky?
    And Allen Ginsberg singing
    "America, why are your libraries full of tears?"

    What's that sound?
    Everybody knows what's going down
    America

    This is pilot Amelia Earhart
