a long time ago it was a gift-
to see and hear every strain of static,
and to slip through untouched and untouchable phantom.
but there's the occasional snare and tangle-
the sound too beautiful not to hear,
the sight too powerful to turn away from-
a million or so feathered gods
scatter overhead-
a cacophony of skyline dispersion,
a dream in sweetest disguise.
and it all fades to snow on the television,
the rustle in the late-night a.m. radio tunings...
So, I catch very few of these in flight, but I did manage to pick up on this one hanging out…. literally…. over Horsepen Bayou. He/she did show off beautifully on this particular day and stuck around until I had to reach for the paddle to make some adjustments to the path of the canoe.

Staff Sgt. Daniel Guy makes his way to the ground Aug. 21, 2013 after jumping from a C-130 Hercules over Andersen Air Force Base, Guam. Air Force static line capability falls under the personnel parachute program. Jumpers are first qualified during a three-week long basic airborne course at Ft. Benning, Ga., and then continue to work on their jumping proficiency and qualifications after they return here. Guy is the 736th Security Forces Squadron fire team leader.
