Landfall
Those minds from the past,
they knew about people like me -
Knew we'd drink Merlot
on a Boeing plane and fly right over
Goose bay, writing landfall
imagining ourselves
at the doors of a brave new world
while listening to Rolls Royce engines
muffled behind Avicii
and Romero
They knew that
we'd feel like this
and that right now,
we'd remember them

Trying to figure out why no one has commented on this. For me, you flipped the switch, opened a huge world in what seems deceptively simple words.
Excellent read tejean :)

Has anyone ever really thought so much about posterity. Maybe I should give it a go
