Ceilings Are Just Floors

The thing about plane crashes is
that they level the playing field.

Humans are alive.
Corpses are dead humans.
Empty skulls make beaks look 
like cathedrals. 

Words are controlled sounds.
Sounds come from flies hovering 
above a fresh wreckage,
a hot, flat mess.

Let's see more of the world together,
before it all looks like Kansas.
