A separate airplane

they were free and life was carriable on our backs
the waiters ignored our appeals
as we looked over the variety
our dreams sewn together

solutions that we had calculated
an old friend came to her
brought back a different species of affection
one that honed a new connection

restless husband shocked
tried to choke out the new friend
alas he wouldn´t die
so husband broken, shared his fear

Wife walked away as husband continued to accuse
slowly unpacking their happy life together
and spilling it like organs across the floor
no accuracy in measuring the damage

husband lost looked to the devlish blue sky
questioning it confused and desperate
and it screamed down to the lad
she will never land
she will never land

The class of fear of loss

Limited hungry and pale at the table
waiting for the teacher
for the floods
for the foods

growing into something
resembling the wall plan diagram
looking for table with a space left for us
musical chairs and other rejection based exercises

perceiving a journey of knowledge
that falls off society like deadskin
acceptable adjectives holding the whole mess together
with deep underground climate controlled weather
