Jog In Fog
you are not
on Jupiter
or in an airplane
there is ground
beneath your feet
but everything else
is gone
except the clouds
and your memory
of how far until
the next
bend in the road
you could be body
only
but your mind
gropes, too
or relaxes
in the idea
that you can be lost
in the world
and still be found

A very good poem
captures both the physical and the metaphysical of the event. Great opening and end. Nothing else to say...
