I`m flying over Newfoundland and I can`t sleep. I can`t see a duuurned thing
It`s -50 degrees out where I am, some eleven kilometres aloft. Too cool for school
It`s queer to think that I share my exact coordinates with the waves and the ecosystems deep under the ocean. They seem worlds away. I would totally swim right now
If I left the plane on foot right now, it would take me about two hours to walk back to earth
but only about a minute to fall through the air
I`m trying to remember how to calculate the speed of the fall of an object based on mass and velocity, but high school physics feel very distant presently
I don`t party with metal birds
Up all night
Can`t see a durned thing
Ask for my boarding pass watch me
Sweat demand my passport see me
Tremble I
Am a nervous flier
I am a nervous flyer
A scuttle old grocery flyer
Buy my cantaloupes
Purchase these Little Debbie cakes
zzzzzzzzzzzz
This is very you. I hear you talking as you say these things. I miss you.
