Floating Today

He stepped out this side of the train
Out into nothing at all!
There is an open fall, I see out the windows
And he walked across a platform of air
There is a black man in an orange coat and silver headphones
On the other side of the tracks
I think, "He is a solid man on solid ground"
But this man walks on nothing, on this side of the train
Beyond this everything is floating
The silver-grey-golden trees
The snow is falling upwards as though gravity has lost it's pull
Like the feeling after getting off a boat, or an elevator,
But without the dizzying effect, floating briefly
And everyone has learnt to walk gracefully
Even the men!
I'm not sure what it is, but I think the clouds have become lighter,
And gained centrifugal force
Pulling all living creatures up to their heart
I'm not sure what it is, but consonants don't sound right anymore
So air is where everything exists
Like dream
Everything is become of dream
