Airplane
Jahn Sood
10/19/10

You wanted to build an airplane
So you called me on the phone
You said, “Bring the propeller,
I can’t do it alone.”
And it was two in the morning,
Didn’t give me that much warning,
But you made me want to
Fly to the unknown.

So I went to your doorstep
With a propeller on my chest
To make grilled cheese sandwiches
And watch North by Northwest again,
You said that I could fall asleep
But you were really in too deep
You saw my eyes and
Said, “I’ll do the rest.”

“Leave the propeller at the door,
You won’t need it anymore.”
You built a fort to climb inside
You offered me a place to hide.
“Imagine it’s a castle, we’re at war.”

When I woke up that morning
Head to toe in desert sand.
I could see from all broken parts.
You’d never learned to land.
But I don’t think you care that much
You never really need a crutch
I think it happened
just the way you planned.
