Oh no!
OhhhhhhhhNoooooooooo!
OOOOOOOOhhhNNNNNNNoooo!
he moans on
a seedy red bus
in the City of Oaks
stuffed with wounded
weary passengers
sitting on grimy seats
trudging along wet
cratered roads towards
a decaying stained
shopping mall parking deck
(exhaling trails of rotting smoke)
NoooooooooooooooooooooooooooN!
OooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhH!
AhhhhhhhhhhhhhhH!
persistently screams
the raging passenger
in his own private hell
inflicting his horrors
on fellow travelers
who hope to survive their
cacophonous
bumpy journey
to a semi-terminal stop
(& reprieve from mobile terror)
