My version of the facts


The flight of Icarus

Icarus descends
feet touching slightly
ah, earth again

Nice weather
he says to his father
bit too hot,
but anyway
did you enjoy the flight?

A madeyed father :
(grumbles) Adolescents!
ha, so risky

A farmer approaches
Get off my land
you stinking vandals
I'm growing crop here

Tomorrow again, dad?

PPS: Or possibly "a crop" would be better, if only one field was being jeopardized by the aviator(s)...

PS: Line 15 seems to need "crops."
