Today the plane rocked
and shook
like hell.
And normally I would
think of dying
and then this time
I thought of dying still.
But instead of imagining
the impact,
and the fire,
and the screams,
I imagined the faces
of the people I knew
when they heard of my end.
I thought of her, wishing
she had bothered to say
goodbye,
or that she hadn't turned away
when the puzzle pieces fit
and she found out how I felt.
So this time when the plane shook
I said
"Let the **** thing burn."
I'm not going back to
anything
anyways.
