He sighed in the giant’s ear
smithed a carapace intact
came out of the cocoon
his wings unpinned
at Jerilderie he tasted stars
holding his boots close
against the cell door
he could see only dark
until they stretched him out
and he became something else
That's very dandy, James.

I like a good apotheosis
