Long Way Down — I Fanned and Coughed

I FANNED AND COUGHED,

expecting whoever was waiting to wait for the next one.

Who wants to get on an elevator full of smoke?

What if it wasn’t really full of smoke?

Still,

who wants to get on an elevator with a kid buggin’?

Swatting and choking on the invisible thick.

They’d probably think

what you probably think right now.
