on the way back

I am returning happy.  I negotiated the airport in Alicante well. I didn't allow the change of pace, place, space, lack of solace challenge the final walk away of 2025. A chico had a jumper with a slogan writ large  *this is the best day ever* which I liked, but I'd change it slightly *these are the best moments ever* The Quiet Sufficiency of *all these* Moments. But the big *flog* of Ryanair is a different sort of *cabin pressure*. They say sit back and relax, but it's immensely difficult to turn off when the continue to force alcohol, perfume, food and scratch card purchases as soon as the cabin is climbing up to it's celling. 

on the way out

I am tired.  I am in the air above France  And I have no idea Why I am above the clouds  And looking at a liminal  Edge retreating west When all I want is a hug. Embrace Spain for the duration Get into Alicante, Valencia! Cease the day in England  And arrive alongside the Mediterranean. I am tired. Coming down in the air above Iberia.
