Take flight
The irony
in order to get out and away,
One must dive in.
Surrounded by people
And thoughts too loud for words.
Anonymity and a mask bring solace amongst the noise.
My own face and life unrecognizable.
At 30,000 feet the clouds clear
And the mountains seem manageable.

Ah, the current realities. The mask does have some advantages beyond public health. Some of us introverts may never give them up…
Love “thoughts too loud for words.” The ending is beautiful.
