12 O’clock High
Hill's arrest gives a new
meaning to the phrase 12 O' Clock High
Stomach loaded with cocaine bags 30,000
feet into the sky
At least he was not in the cockpit
but in uniform en route from Columbia to U.S.
One bag bursts and surprise he is
under great medical stress
Pilots are not paid even at
regional carriers only the minimum wage
Why he would risk death of bursting
bags is hard to gauge?
I would liked to have known the
carrier's name
If this pilot Hill had a drug
problem he could not tame
His carrier's drug testing program
needs an overhaul
How high on cocaine does a pilot
need to be before he loses control and plane stalls?
This could be a carrier one needs
to not fly
If any risk any of the flight crew
might be during the flight high.
Another example of how the war on
drugs is a war in which we may fail
Risking a career, life for $4,000 of cocaine
and facing felonies and 500 grand bail
