An ode to the free man next to me on the airplane.
If you've ever flown
you've learned something

As Daedalus learned on waxen waning wings
As Lakehurst learned on ten tons of melting,
screaming steel
As I learned on two-thousand degrees of jet
fuel, and dreams of adderall and acts of God

The sun is much closer to the earth
than we ever thought.
