Fear of Flying
Flying solo to Nashville
Boarding pass in hand
Concourse train to A Gates
People everywhere!
Feeling alone in the crowd
Going through security
Shoes off, feet apart, hands up, scanned
Surrounded by strangers
Standing way too close
Feeling insecure in security
Watching green-winged Covids
Swarming throngs of folks
Like a swatted beehive….
Am I really “safe?”
Feeling vulnerably vaccinated
Feeling the real fear of flying….
