Welcome To Salt Lake City Poem by Suchoon Mo

Welcome To Salt Lake City


I am going to Salt Lake City
a Mormon city
the cradle of Church of Latter Day Saints

I am flying to Salt Lake City
in a Delta Airlines jet airplane

I hear a young woman flight attendant speaking
relentlessly too fast for me to make any sense

she sounds like saying

ladies and gentlemen
we are descending
please buckle your seat belt securely
until it falls apart

welcome to Salt Lake City!
