we board after no wait at all, a neon blue
tube of mindboggling ability with the added
benefit of antiseptic 550
mph space toilet in the rear. we land
like a sofa cushion dropped on the floor,
heavy but soft, then win big at baggage
claim roulette, all four free checked items
come through undamaged. 2 a.m., hoof it to
taxi stand and get into a regular old cab,
$51 for the ride. outside our place i hand
the driver $61--all the bills i have left in
my wallet. he says it's too much but it
feels good finishing the trip off with my
last dollar, nowhere left to go but home.
