BELOW OUR FOKKER 100 poem

Below Our Fokker 100

aircraft, traffic lights crawl across
the landscape of our
imagination. From here we see
stars of civilization, power
moguls planning their next moves, a
high-rise here, concrete four
lane there. Such small incidents
in the humanity of life.
A thimble of activity in our worldly
adventures. Life is much more
than a stack of greenbacks or
a muscle car, even a 5-bedroom
penthouse. It’s love.
