Reveries on life and perceptions on the long flight home. Always thinking of “you.” Always…
Looking out the window
Trapped inside a jumbo jet
Taking in the Earth below
And the colors of the sunset
Ersatz daytime shooting stars
Proudly soaring through the sky
The contrails and the flashing lights
Just like life, just streaking by
Cotton candy floor below
Like so many untarnished sheep
And oh that glorious sunset
Beguiling me to take the leap
Packed away like folded fish
In this shiny, tubular metal can
Knees tucked, feet stuck
Tiny flash in a giant pan
As are we all, as are we all
Hurtling through the air and life
Nothing and everything to do
Strapped in, waiting and thinking
Thinking of you, always of you
