Free-Range Human
Free-Range Human
Inside my cage, pinned
between seat back and tray table,
craning for a glimpse of sky.
Booze costs five bucks/five euros.
A smoke costs 250 bucks and 10 years,
yet the man ahead of me is lighting up
his shoe, while the one beyond is scratching
his itchy crotch.
Am I chicken
to want out?
