wheels rotating
aircraft spins
time to reflect
on all that I leave behind
checking if the stories
lay buried in graves
nobody to call my name
-the city and I
strangers hereafter
the plane flies again
to a destination
life will crash
after landing

Reena, is this fiction, or did you really move? I like the courage shown here to go to unfamiliar territory.

I did this in 2010 and returned back in 2019.

I like the feeling of a mind spinning here, in addition to the airplane. Life can so often feel like that.
