The Revenant

I think that humans have a huge capacity to carry pain and sadness. There are things that haunt us our entire lives; we are unable to let them go. The good times seem almost effervescent and dreamlike in comparison with the times that didn’t go so well. – Henry Rollins

A swimming pig
all he could afford.
Jonathan determined -
make it back home,
two injured wings
nothing he can't handle.
Pressed the button.
Watched 
the silent 
slow
drop 
of release
bubble 
toward 
the pain.
Floated away.
