According to Brueghel
                         Williams
                                    the class

when Icarus fell
it was clear
                                    there was a lot more going on

a farmer was ploughing
his field
                                     in obsolete military garb

the whole pageantry
concerned
with itself
                                    yes, but –

                                    what about the shepherd
                                    the bollock dagger
                                    and is that

                                    a dead sheep
                                    down there
                                    in the bushes?

                                    who cares about
the wing’s wax
                                    when

                                    there is no grass
                                    where the sheep
                                    are grazing

                                    and the farmer
                                    is a demoted soldier                   
                                    by the look of things.

                                     significantly
                                     there was
                                     another story
                                   noticed

this was                        presumption
                                     which led to
Icarus drowning
                                    in the first place
