The Paranoid Traveller
Must be
At least three
Hours early
Passports pass checks
Tickets are all ok
The first of many
X-ray machines
Comes next
Remove all metal
Objects
No one is allowed
To object
Next check your bag
Your carry on
You cannot carry this
It's too big
It's not quite right
It doesn't conform
We have to confiscate these
Please remove your shoes
All this to get on a plane
I sometimes wonder
If all this security
Is required
Is it security?
Or is it
Paranoia
Oh well at least I
Have the same on my return.
Maybe I will just
Take the train
Much less of a strain.
