stasis

stasis

check in this magic
off load your baggage
hit Duty Free..board
Fasten your belt
and go into stasis
a time capsule with
a drop down table
a boring magazine
and in the event of 
 emergency how to fold..
sleep from Robin Hood
to anywhere in the world
travel ..across the zones
through hoardes of
screaming babies
and loud mouth
parties..those that
throw back there seats
in your face..no effect.
I arrive refreshed 
I am able to ..sleep
in the middle activity
thanks to those 
miserable journeys
in the car as a child
travelling up to bonnie Scotland
from Yorkshire in a bouncing
old car with little suspension
not much comfort intention.
to releive the ultimate hours
of boredom I escaped to
a magical land of dreams
..that is now a crucial part
of my sanity..therefore
if You should ever see me
crashed out on a plane
please do not wake
it flies me insane

Charlotte Connerley's sleep poem reminded me of what I do on areoplanes..I once slept through dinner, the guy next door ate it..I usually wake up for that activity..but otherwise I always sleep on planes.
