I rode the bus downtown today.
Bought my pass, I’m on my way.
Passengers, People, “all aboard!”
Everyone different, everyone bored.
Starting, stopping on the line,
This bus squeaks, all the time!
“The doors are closing, The doors are closing”, the driver squawks.
People pack in, nobody balks.
Headphones, smartphones, devices abound
Yet some folks, well, just sitting around.
A lady, taking a small nap caught.
Me? Observing, just lost in thought.
Starting, stopping on the line,
This bus squeaks, all the time!
