In The Airports

...I see them as funeral houses.
I see the longing and the sorrows.
The passengers left—
and they became the ghosts
that greet me.

They show me the architecture,
the lights and the reflections,

...It's taken me sixty years
Of evolution
To realise the simplicity 
Of Earthen electricity 

My naked feet, like freshly cleaned
Battery terminals
Strolling in hilarity 
To observe correct pola...

...I'm in line at a store, and I'm bored,
Typing on my phone, restless and alone.

I’ve got light-blue nails, like the sky or your eyes.
I like them, it’s my favorite color - I don’t know why.

I’...

Overseeing the direction of my particular train. 
It just follows the course of the tracks laid down 
Within the fractal flow of nature’s symmetr...

Terminal

...My head spins as the noise from the crash echoes in my head. I sit up in some kind of terminal with strange trains bound left and right for places I don’t understand.

...Pale pasty forms,
                                       Soft bodies draped,
                                       Covered in the sameness,

...You are the opposite of everything I am.
You are so unique; nothing like a carbon copy.

Unlike the average--the reason you complete me.
Unlike many without identity, you are happily you.

No people around, he doesn't care.
Elusive creatures come out to play,
No human predators spoiling their day.
Air smells sweet, less carbon, less...

...When we were kids, kids we were without no pain or fears,
we’d do the ‘devilish’ of things to impress our peers.
The biggest dare or bravest feat would for the pack be tried.
Lord knows now when I...

where we’re looking for a leader.
The last one was murderous 
And we hung her for treason.

But I’ve still got a family ...

...I drop my friends when I no longer need them. 
Disposing myself of them at bus terminals, airports,

...It won’t be long before we will see
breakdown of moral values and family,
Marriage won’t be sacred as of yore
we won’t see man and wife anymore.

The family will be considered a species rare

While in this world it seems opposites have attraction
Male - female, plus - minus, north - south, captain and crewman
Between these terminals, force yielded by interaction
