Passengers
Steel-encased community ready for an airplane odyssey
soaring from gravity, yet… only another mundane odyssey
Noise and crowds, dour faces waiting for the next departure
packed like sardines, embarking on their daily train odyssey
Far from the Aegean, bobbing on the sea like a crumbling cork
pleasure cruising, seeking existential solace on a vain odyssey
Asphalt beneath rubber, chattering children in the back seat
wishing you could run from your life; a changing lane odyssey
Caught on the riptide of circumstance and expected choices
fitting in, wearing out, another passenger on the pain odyssey
