Frequent Flyer Blues Poem by Sean Lux

Frequent Flyer Blues

Rating: 4.0


Terminal after terminal plane after plane
My location changes but it somehow feels the same
Same boring food same uncomfortable seat
I hear the same overhead pages even in my sleep

North or south it doesn’t matter where I go
I swear I saw the same shoeshine guy in ATL and SFO

I fear I may be losing it but what can I do
The frequent flyer blues give you deju vu
