airplane haiku

the airplane
i am in a box
faced with my mortality
let me out- ALIVE

carbonated 
drinking ginger ale
burning his mouth and throat hot
i think he will burp

full bladder
every little bump
shaking me inside and out
i need to go pee

baby in front of me
sleep little blue eyes
awake on the other side
you will be set free

it's 5 o'clock somewhere
it's not even noon
living it up in first class
a drink for the nerves
