Turbo Props

 

Flirtation is the greatest unharnessed

energy field in the world On the Dash 8

Turboprop they hustled me into

when my scheduled flight was canceled

a sandaled girl and tattooed guy

are plopped together to make room for

Linda Hamilton (in disguise) and her two kids

Tattoo has a connecting flight he can’t possibly

make It’s all very funny She laughs

Something about Costa Rica I think she’s

describing a sweat lodge rocks and steam

 

For all the turbulence I like the simple

mechanics of the prop planes You can see

the works The jostling is somehow

natural Stray currents boosting

and dropping us onto other stray

currents Flirtation

is the greatest unharnessed

energy field in the world
