The Human Flaw
VROOM VROOM, the engine hums whirls and THUMPS!
A noxious cloud in the air it pumps
A choke, a cough, a ststststtutter
With a clunk and a seize
The plane, it does shudder
The propellor halts
Tick Tock Tick Tock
Time flies by…
The seconds crawl and no one moves
nothing moves
there in the DARK
without a clue.
Cries of TERROR! – cries of FRIGHT!
Some of joy
But one of MIGHT!
“Out of my way! I’m coming through!!!”
The roar in the cabin grew and GREW
The man, he thinks he thought he knew
To save the plane and fly it too!!
Poised in the cockpit, THE LAST OF THE CREW!
He grabbed hold of the reigns
and forgot what to do.
Tick Tock Tick Tock
Time flies by…
-Should have stayed at a Holiday Inn last night!
