A Plane

I flew on a plane - It was regular size And far from a luxury jet. If I had to guess, I’d say 400 million Could buy quite a few, I would bet. With no royals on board, We were packed in the rows And content with our pretzels and drinks. Every passenger paid, No corruption or bribes, Which for Air Force One everyone thinks. All the world is aghast As Qatar worms its way Into He-Not-Worth Naming’s elite And Americans sigh At another display Of democracy’s hapless defeat.
