My air-adventurer

"My air-adventurer"

to Carolin, my air-adventurer

A few hours ago,
I thrashed in the night,
thinking of us waking in dark
for a dark van to the airport,

or riding in your purple Saturn
to catch a suburban daytime bus
to BOS/Logan for SJC/Norcal;
now I can only ride w/out you.

We did what everybody else did,
but monocoastal's all I can do.
You brought so much to my life;
what we did was way beyond me,

adventuring bicoastally, yours:
I helped, packed, carried bags,
but you were my air-adventurer.

to Carolin, my air-adventurer

A few hours ago,
I thrashed in the night,
thinking of us waking in dark
for a dark van to the airport,

or riding in your purple Saturn
to catch a suburban daytime bus,
to fly out to northern California
where I'm writing this, alone now.

We did what everybody else did, but
I no longer do, now that I’m alone here.

You brought so much to my life;
what we did was way beyond me,
the adventure of bicoastiality, yours;
I helped, I packed, I carried bags,
but you were my air-adventurer.
