Public Commute

Contributed by Man_On_High on Monday, 12th June 2006 @ 12:41:33 AM in AEST
Topic: oops



..trapped and beleaguered in a web of constants
garrolous and unto the point of endurance..

commuters on the T..

set upon ushering in the new day
with an unsure wheezing of do-good intentions:
often looking at each other across the littered chasm
of crumpled morning news, empty coffee cups and the like;
awaiting the inevitable sign of departure.


Dissolute and mindless, would otherwise find me
crawling into the backseat of a cab.. the driver:
someone who knew better 'way back when' but never escaped..
bruising the reeking walls with ballads of yesteryear,
roaring the conquests of nubile native daughters who,
no-doubt, were long removed by his lascivious gaze and tooth alone-


..not knowing my intolerance
for dimwit..
all the while, a happy man.


B.

ACK! You fogot to mention the humid, greasy stench
hanging in the air like a thick fog. . . .

oh wait- that's MY van!!!! LOL sorry . . . okay

*puts on serious face*

A vivid and descriptive take on commuting, dear Billy. I must say,
you have an incredible gift for making even the most mundane of
activities that much more intriguing. Dare I say, even profound!!

Splendid write hun-
