Modern wings

A pressurized steel capsule
Has now been filled
With strangers of different races
With a common goal
Despite comming from various seperated places

An engine rumbles as a dimly lit path leads us to our seats
A cold breeze of air moves swiftly beneath our rested feet.
Avoiding eye contact
Oblivious to what fate we shall meet
Once what we had all been waiting for
Once our main goal was finally reached.

One man in the front
One woman in the back
Each one standing in the middle
Of the shining black track
Guided with a voice
Sending warnings from above
About different precautions
Once we soar like a titanic dove

A mile in a second
Than a mile in as fast as a man can blink
With the help of Zephyr
The metal vessel negatively sinks

With each second passing by
The land moves further from our eyes
Reality inverted
As if the oceans switched places with the sky.

A small transparent window
To the left of my view
The lights of the Earth shrunk,
And the clouds suddenly grew
One would not realize
That while seated you flew
Reaching altitudes ,once unreachable
Without a single clue

A minor mistake,
May not may you think,
That a single degree change
Can make the lives of hundreds at brink

And yet we feel safe,
As if survival was guaranteed
As we fly in a modern chariot
Lead by a mechanical steed

Time passed by,
Hundreds of borders surpassed
Then the voice above said
"We shall reach the goal at last"

Then the silver vehicle desended
Shaking into what seemed like mist
As the ground was then visible
The ground which all passengers had missed

Smoothly gliding down the heavens
Towards the land pitch black and dark
Then a sudden thump
Has made an audible mark.

We then stepped out of the colossal bird
A ecosystem so different made our senses explode
our feet felt the soil of a land
at the other side of the globe.
