On a plane
shot down
with a vodka and tonic
on the floor
and overhead
Coffee and Red Bull for later
to keep me awake
so I could remember
spinning down
to earth
through the quiet buzz
of misremembering
Deciding whether
to memorize the fall
or hope that
the bowling ball
I keep overhead
does the job
to knock me out first
