20151001 (returning home)

I think I'll be seeing these planes only from the outside now.













There was a little turbulence 

Coming down people asked

If I had a rosary no but I 

Don’t think we have the time

When the wheels smacked the 

Tarmac a cheer went up and

Dissolved in applause first 

Time for everything the air

Force retiree next to me asked

What’s the fuss we still had

Both engines the real estate

Knockout on my left passed

Me her card promised me a

Great place in Crocker Park

For ten fifty a month she’s

Got my card may stumble 

Across my rant on Crocker

Park think to withdraw the

Offer don’t fly Frontier unless

You can save enough to cover

The future costs of spinal

Repair from having to sit in

One-size aluminum unadjustable

Molded chairs with a luxurious 

One-eighth inch deep coat of

Sprayed on foam being 

Bound to kneelers for two 

Hours would have been less 

Confining plus we could more

Easily reach our credit cards 

They charge for everything

Except use of the toilets

Exception which proves the rule 

Frontier staff faced with 

Universal revolt from first

Timers have a standing 

Reply from ticketing agents 

To flight attendants that 

While no Frontier does

Not charge for air you 

Breath in flight their engineers

Accountants are working on

It what democracy of agony

They can give you more 

Leg room if someone

Ticketed for a seat at the

Emergency doors is willing

To switch of course that will be

A thirty dollar upgrade credit

Card please a thirty dollar

Credit or miles for the surrendurer

In case you thought the guy

At ticketing looked a lot 

Like the guy who brought

Your luggage to the baggage

Carousel fear no more

They’re trained to be a

Versatile bunch probably

Why it took so long to get

Your grip no amount of

Money could get me to

Say cheerfully as the smiling

Attendant said as we

Were deplaning wolfie 

The totem on our plane's

Rudder wishes you pleasant

Flying if it is pleasant flying

It can’t be on Frontier
