2 by 1

One way to view,
the other gives only death
when soaring by someone else's hand.
Beyond the view,
2 by 1, so small,
the white flies in blue
above the brown and green
on wings conceived of
industry and minds.
Crammed full of souls,
the streamline ballet delivers
to destinations beyond
the clouds.
And all we see is
through the 2 by 1
which was so generously
provided.
