Jet Lag, one of the wonders of the modern world..

Jet Lag
By Franklin Price
12/11/2016

Above the distant mountain tops
Blue skies, contrails of white
Clouds made at thirty thousand feet
By jet planes in their flight

A myriad of vapors 
Crisscrossing in the air
I wonder where they're going
Getting quickly, here to there

Could be to cross the country
Cross the Atlantic in the night
So fast the body's reeling
Knowing something isn't right

The sun is up and shining
When it's time to be in bed
Hard for the brain to comprehend
The Jet Lag in your head

Get up and out on local time
Adapting better day to day
Just when you have adjusted
Must go back the other way
