The Bus Stop Speaks

The bus stop says its out of use this week Men are digging up the road again I never knew that modern bus stops speak I wonder will the street lamps follow suit Their voices like the chiming of Bog Ben The bus stop says its out of use this week Maybe I can find another route Will railway stations stutter like shy men? I never knew that modern bus stops speak How to travel ,hearing voices break Pity and compassion hit my pen The bus stop says its out of use this week I fear my travel plans have gone astray The journey I am on will never end Did you know that modern bus stops speak? From the dark grey sky the rain descends Evolution staggers round the bends The bus stop says it's out of use this week I never knew that modern bus stops speak
