Breaking Through Red Stained Glass

In a museum on the bridge to NYC

On a field trip with best friends and lover

Multiple layers of it

From the roof down through each floor

I drove my flying van through it

To pick up my friends and companion

And made sure to write to the administration

So that they knew it was me

And that I accept the cost

Of breaking through the glass ceiling

Of art and culture and higher living

Portend of Adventure

Of Advent

Of excitement

Of me.
