Next 50 Years

Next 50 Years 
Next 50 Years 
I was riding to College 

I saw a man rolling up a smoke! 
Was it tobacco or was it dope?? 
I could not be aware of what he had, 
I was on the move. 
I saw a man rolling up a smoke! 
Was he homeless without hope, 
or just a local with a toke?? 
You may see a grove 
of trees where I was at. 
I was on the bus (Suntran). 
For the next 50 years.
