I am seated right behind the curtain
First row economy
Right behind the business class
Where envy is at its greatest
My knees grind into the back of the front seat
LHR London Heathrow to HKG Hong Kong, China
Yes, I'll have a tea please
And maybe a gin and tonic
Make that three
LOR677:
From WAW Frederic Chopin airport, Warsaw, Poland to SVO Sheremetyevo airport, Moscow, Russia
The flight is two hours late
My throat is burnt
I order a cognac in the departure hall
Take a sip, set down the glass
Before I can take a second sip
The rim of the glass is covered with fruit flies
Too late...
Too many dead flies are already swimming in the glass
I leave the restaurant, and also departure still a long time off
Go to the gate
A small room with benches all facing the airfield
A small window marked Drink Bar
The cognac here is cheaper
With my last złoty I make a second try
But the drama repeats itself
By the time I cover the glass with my passport
Which at that time is green with a golden eagle on it
There are already several flies swimming in it
Drosophila melanogaster
Drosophila melanogaster
Drosophila melanogaster
Do you love him, black bodied fly
Drosophila melanogaster
Drosophila melanogaster
Do you love him, you
