Jet Lag
I hear the term bandied about azure seas, endless beach, Thinking of the far off lands That took days and days to reach. Longing for the tropics, Baffled by the length of flight, To finally land on distant shores, Unaware if day or night. Dark and light, time zones Knowing relatives who sleep Dwell in the antipodean As toward the sun we...

According to those who fly alone on a jet We ain’t ruined the planet, not quite, not just yet Thus, they keep flying’ to sound the alert That Mother Earth’s wounded, yes, she’s really hurt But first, off to France for a nice frothy malt Tip toe past China cuz it ain’t their fault I’ll avoid all the places where bullets...

Jet Lag
I see him stumbling around looking for something to hold on to but there was nothing there except the open thin air and a bunch of bureaucrats wearing thin frocks walking around on wet grass with fake greetings and a forced smile that caught us by surprise. Bob has been in the news and this...

Mission Lag
We are not alone in this place Just isolated in space Our star isn’t dim Just at our Galaxy‘s very rim For no other reason Than it was their mating season They wined and they dined With tentacles entwined Then they merged and they all Made mass love in free fall So engrossed with that act They overlooked the fact That it just might be worth Investigating...

Jet Lag
Many things improve with age, Like wine and certain cheeses, But others turn to hurricanes What once were gentle breezes. Like jet lag – for the younger folk, It barely makes a ripple, While older flyers feel effects In double, even triple. For hours in an airplane, In your 20’s, is just fun, Though for every decade added, Every synapse comes undone. The young and old are...

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...
