Breath of God on wrist. People
watch. Tweet. Post. Kill me.

Long layover, Part 1: Queen City Kitchen
How long can I sit
nursing a small coffee ’til
I’m kicked to the curb?
Traveling unplugged
We all crave power,
connection. Squat shamelessly
for that next tech fix.
Airport robbery
Boingo charged me eight
bucks for all-day internet.
Sucker born right here.
Airport restaurants
Want my business? Give
me outlets, internet, booth
seating and, yeah, food.
Power hungry
At every gate
we jockey for outlets, our
iPhones running low.
Travel itinerary
I draft spreadsheets, each
detail a talismanic
ward of protection.
Packing
I can’t know who I’ll
be tomorrow cramped and shoved
in a carry-on
Fearful flyer
tomorrow between
Chicago Phoenix I’ll be
a dot in the sky
Lying on Facebook
Spun as adventure,
it’s a long hard drive with a
heartbroken daughter.
