Riding The Bus
Your mood changes depending on the time of day
In the morning most are restless with nothing to say
In the afternoon that when the annoyance starts
With loud school kids and drunks from liquor marts
You try your best not to give too much eye contact
It's loud cell phone conversations behind your back
The seats are constantly signed by

The beast must have rest—it's a horse
If not your quest's over—of course
These trips had required
Getting tired and mired
Cars from this hard work—us divorce

Public Transportation Ad
For optimum health, take a bus or train.
It's a good plan when it doesn't rain.
You'll save money and the environment. Heck,
you won't even get in a wreck.

On your feet
In a boat
you can stay afloat
with a goat
In a car
you can go far
and race a star
In a bus
you can discuss
because there are lots of us
In a train
you can remain
and see the rain
In a truck
you can sit with a duck
if you have any luck
In a canoe
there can be two
or just you
But on your feet
It

Public Transportation Hazards
I rush every morning holding my coffee .
I board the bus , checking my phone
I want no problems .
As mind prepares for hectic hours
some daring guy breathes on my ear,
questioning me for my IG .
beyond upset
I say : no way.
Another guy at 7’s platform wishes
the same ,
he’s

Alien Transportation
He walked around the showroom
the cars were shining bright
He told the nearest salesman
I do not see a bike
They thought he meant motorcycles
instead of brand-new cars

Kindred Spirits
Yours is my sacred non-zero soul
core center shared
within
Surrounded by your robust
fertile
masculine energy
Not to exploit
and yet not too shy
Not too retractive
nor extractive,
equipoised
Anticipating
our cooperative re-investing,
powerfully ebbing
and succulently flowing
further enculturating future.
So, I do not cheat without you
in my most polypathic
panentheistic imaged way,
Always knowing we must each
separately
and full-clothed return
to yet another Patriarchal
White Capitalist dominant
LeftBrain academically
monoculturally anthro-supremacist
Straight Day

River Crossing
Icy blue water showing through thin ice
Train crossing on the bridge high above
On silver tracks worn slick with the years,
The trestle creaking, boxcars screeching
One after another streaks of daylight
Blipping through the narrow passages,
Housing enormous couplers, air brakes
Occasionally squealing cryptic messages
Graffiti on the sides with sidewalk crayons
Like strange Middle Eastern languages
Moving too rapidly to be translated,
Steam

A train runs Cape Town to Cairo.
It will be through here by and by.
The route is straight as an arrow,
It’s like riding clouds through the sky.

People who cannot walk far
They could take a bus
Without too much fuss

Public Transportation
To travel near and far,
we don’t need a car.
There’s some trains underground.
A fleet of buses can be found.
They are a great sensation.
Taking us to our destination.
Just get over to the station.

The Free-Est Form of Transportation
Veil of snow impeding my desire,
I trudge in spite of you;
I trudge because of you,
my legs knee deep in ice.
Frigid wind conspiring to obstruct my path,
I trudge despite you,
I travel through you
and my body heat will survive you.
Hopelessly wandering the barren ice,
seeking a reprise.
I am cold, I will surmise;
yet I shall overcome the pain
to achieve
