On the Way to Buying

painting by leoni afremov

on the way to buying

on the way to buying
more time, we found
that we had been pick-
pocketed precisely three
or four flyovers
ago – part of the
charm of living
a stone’s throw
away from two major
airports is the
opportunity
to glimpse
the future
gliding in on
metallic wings
.
