Exploring Possibilities


            Memories,
            cling-film wrapped
            fresh
            and clean for whenever.
            Weighted
            with life's necessities,
            baggage
            I cannotleave behind.

            Strap on my seat belt (I'm not a good traveller)
            and ask the flight attendant "When do we arrive?"
