In the Air (part 1, verse 1) Janet Kuypers 3/4/24 On a plane, flying over Las Vegas with my family, my sister and myself in one row, my parents in the other across the way. We’re nearing the end of our flight; mom tells me to sit in her seat and look out the window as we fly over the Hoover dam. Sitting next to dad, I watch him lean out the window saying, just think of all that concrete. I look over his shoulder, the dam no larger than a thumbnail, the water, like cracks in a sidewalk, like the wrinkles in the palm of my hand.
