Hale the Prince of western sage Hale the Princess too Imagine them not inside a cage Or prisoners inside a zoo Imagine the world seen through their eyes Their gaze, like a sailor’s stare Of distance and birds and endless skies Of cheetah and elk and bear Think of a link between eagle and you With feet on the ground but speed Lodged between Earth and endless blue Stuck between knowledge and need Blend your colors of tawny and white With background and foreground and fade out of sight
