ask yrself
why you're here
in someone else's
promised land
wrinkled brown eyes dip
to the flourescence
my thigh
touching yours
on the bus
42 minutes stood up
gym bag and all
no matter how
much money
this man is screaming
for 20 cents
all he wants
is 20 cents
and nobody'll give
it to him, not like that
not that sound
of sarcastic desperation
