an almost accidental gathering of poets

Free
they give free champagne
there´s this airline
but I´ve been on it
before.

when the stewardess came by
I said no.

it came right out of the
bottle.

the stewardesses went up and down
giving refills.

it was a smooth flight
but then it
began:
restroom runs.

Lines formed.
paper bags came
out.

I sat there listening to the
moaning and the
puking.

some people puked while they waited for their
baggage, others puked on the
escalators and on the parking lot
ramps, some puked in their cars while
driving home, some were still puking at home.

when I got home
I switched on the news
opened a beer
and let the bathwater
run.
