That plane seems so big

Trips are like funerals
Overwhelming
Scary
Shocking
Too much to take in at once
An endless string of choices
Which seat do I want the window or the isle
By my chatty aunt who repeats herself three times
Or maybe my step mother who howls like a hound at the moon
Do I fly with One World Cathay Pacific or West Jet
Henry Walser Funeral Home or Ratz-Bechtel Funeral Home and Cremation Center
The black coffin or the veneered wood
Yes trips are a lot like funerals
Overwhelming and vast
With thousands of little lives all squeezing into the same space
Making you feel insignificant and doomed to die yourself one day
