Yeah, it hits you in the feels.

Windows and doors is such a great metaphor.

I figured. Most people aren't aviation nerds.

At first it felt like I was mansplaining, which I *really* don't want to do. But then I decided I was pointing out something you didn't already know, so...

It's a good poem. It just needs the right plane.

Love this. It seems so simple on the surface, but it has layers. That's what good poetry does.

Follow-up if you want to replace the plane...

Look for a Boeing Clipper, a Lockheed Super Constellation, or a Douglas DC-6. They're airliners from before the jet age. I think that's what you're want to go with the passport line.

My unsolicited 2¢.

I hate to be that guy, but...

This plane is a heavy bomber from WW II. I don't think that's what you intended.

That being said, I came here 'cause I like your poetry. The one about windows and doors hooked me, but I like them all so far, this one too.
