Transfers
When needing a transfer, by ferry or plane
And time's the determining factor,
It's hard to stay calm 'cause a place in your brain
Sparks some stress like an A-bomb reactor.
The panic sets in that you will not connect
So you race at a speed that looks frantic
And when it turns out that you weren't correct,
The relief that you feel is gigantic.
Still, it takes quite a while for your heart to slow down
And regain the composure you've squandered.
Perhaps your next journey to some distant town
Will be solely to where your mind's wandered.
