Welcome to the Squadron.

"Welcome to the Squadron" is a short poem by Karl Jones.

Poem

We are all winging it
from birth to death.

Si Monumentum Requiris,
Circumnavigate.

Welcome to the Squadron.

No man is an airplane

Jones has repeatedly insisted that "no man is an airplane, no man is an island — whatever it takes."

History

I wrote the poem on the morning of Saturday, 14 November 2020, in response to a post on Facebook.
