Airplane

A Poem by Purnomo Fredy

Poem about Ariplane

Airplane

scintillating invention
a technology to defy gravity
driving culture in the speed of sound
with the driving force of civilization jet
penetrate the distance between the clouds and the storm

leaving the earth
interrupted memories
In an iron cage
Through the long stage
Borrowing wings of light

A long whistle
electrifying awareness
Bees buzzing loudly
In the turbulence
And the heat that creates a boost

Leaving a hot trail
At a concentration of cold air
Lost memories
Disappeared by the burnt turbine engine
Climbing the stairs to the sky

Set navigation in the direction of the wind
Where maps are stored trip
in a secret manuscript
In the course of chasing rainbows
Towards the land above the clouds

Sitting in the empty hallway
with a light aerodynamic frame
Filled with people
In the uproar mind endlessly
this is where the sense of solitude

The clink of a spoon and fork
As friends mingle
in rowdy human voice and the roar of the engine
away from people who are known
and bustle that is not stopping

human civilization as miniature
leaving the crowd of light
like fireflies in the night
or lined hills and paddy fields,
like a sweet girl hair who is misleading the ship’s bow
