What Boys Who Sleep Near Airports Know

Some propellers stutter
  until they get the words right

Some don't stop roaring
  until their motions are carried

Some drone on and on
  about the nor' westers

Some whine like bandsaws
  when they talk of revolutions

Some fling until sunrise
  blade after blade after blade

Some whisk the dark into
  spoonfuls the child can swallow
