Progress
On the airplane flying back home wondering
where my little boy went who loved
remote control cars and playing Axis &Allies
with his friends, who named
his yellow parakeet Leom. Today
he commutes an hour and a half
to work, sometimes has to fly to India
and London, puts the trash out
on Monday and giggles in terror
when he mentions
his mortgage payment even though
he hust bought anew BMW
although it's not remote controlled.
