Top Gun Prison

 
There's a top gun
Soldier in every prison
He earned his wings 
 
A cocktail is 
More than water
A thirsty ego satiated
 
The sky's 
The limit so
Cruise on autopilot
 
Be a hero
Everybody's watching
In the prison day room
 
There's a
Science to it
It addicts its benefactors
 
Fly away
Time is a
Simulated aviator
 
Keep your
Friends close
And your enemies closer

Your poem would make a worthy poster for
the Top Gun school or San Quentin. Aim High!

i love that line- Cruise on autopilot, kinda plays with my mind. thank you for posting this, Sage, made my breakfast more enjoyable.

And there are plenty of guns going around to make it so. Flying is limited to the atmosphere and to the gravitational pull/push the body can endure. Planes with AI can fly much faster and turn much faster and very soon fly boys will be obsolete and probably already are except for studies of how much punishment a human body can stand and still think before blacking or redding out.

But you're not writing about fly boys, you are writing about high boys in prison places. Many will get out in time and show their ability to annihilate very soon. Isn't that nice? Sugar and spice.
