the grey leviathans of the sky float towards the horizon
as the gods begin to smile upon them
delighted to see their babies come home
they painted them with colors never before seen
and the leviathans danced among themselves
on their long trek across the sky to their home
where the heavens and the earth converge
a place no mortal can arrive
always moving forward getting closer
failing to find safe harbor
facing the vast turbulent seas
some meet their end beneath the deep
some go one almost forever
further than most
forever following the great leviathans
as the gods bestow their praise upon them
envious of those that came before us
we too wish to see the same
