SPRINT DREAMS
Girl on the Plane (a poem)
There’s this girl in the window seat
She looks like me
Small nose
Thick arched eyebrows dark that matched her dark hair
Her pale pink phone case paired well with the muted colors of her nail polish, jacket and scuffed backpack
Why was her bag scuffed?
School?
Travels?
Parties?
She doesn’t really look like me
Her thick thighs squeezed into her grey sweatpants spread across the much too small airplane seats
Her dark hair shined of gel and it’s straight strands reflected the light from the much too small airplane window
She doesn’t look like me
But we look related
Like two gal pals on a spur of the moment getaway
Just our backpacks, our books and our poorly thought out plans of what’s next when the plane lands
In reality, I will be headed to a track meet and she…
I hope she enjoys wherever it is she is going
