Tinted windows hide you
Cushy seats deceive
Friends trying to find you
A world of make-believe.

Lumpy bags below you
Each person out of place
Pilot doesn't know you
Cold air on your face.

The author's comments:
This was written on a bus trip when I was thinking about how much the bus resembled an airplane. The loud engine, shaped seats and baggage underneath all reminded me of an airplane ride. Anyone who's been on a Coach Bus will know what I mean.
