Non-Attendance.

Every day she put on the same clean deep blue uniform

Her peroxide stained hair tied back in a bright blue bow.

Her shoes, highly polished, reflected her deeply tired face

As she sees tears streaming causing mascara to run

Down on her cheeks which she lets drop to the floor.

The bus takes her everyday to the airport

Where she waits for her plane to take off.

The panic sets in just before

Take off

As she screams inside her head, the image always there,

As the plane gets delayed time and time again.
