Journal entry

"Nearer the sun, and the wax that held the wings melted in that fierce heat, and the bare arms beat up and down in the air, and lacking oarage took hold of nothing. Father ! he cried, and Father ! until the blue sea hushed him, the dark water men called the Icarian now."


Icarus should have paid more attention to his father when he was explaining the rules to him about how to fly. If he had listened he wouldn't have gone so close to the sun and he would still be alive instead of dead.
