An aeroplane stands waiting
for passengers
the airport´s full of passengers
the walls are pink, filled with sad paintings
of people turned away-back to the viewer.
The passengers eyes are dim, and they´re
not speaking. Silence overcomes them,
and sadness. The guards are quiet, their eyes
stars, their faces mellow. Silence is everywhere
in the airport. Everything is in magenta
and sepia, watercolours-their bodies frail like
chinese paper. They can´t go back, and disappear
fading, into the plane.

They+re dead and the aeroplane takes them, sleeping,
into another world forever.
