Sandinista Avioncitos -- Lawrence Ferlinghetti

(Poem #95)Sandinista Avioncitos The little airplanes of the heart with their brave little propellers What can they do against the winds of darkness even as butterflies are beaten back by hurricanes yet do not die They lie in wait wherever they can hide and hang their fine wings folded and when the killer-wind dies they flutter forth again into the new-blown light live as leaves -- Lawrence Ferlinghetti
