I tried music
Squeezing my head dry of emotion
I tried drawing
Scratching out an imperfect form through the window
I tried to read, but
There were no pages I could turn.
So, I sat back,
And crossed my legs,
Leant my head back on
My hoodie-pillow
The sleepy sunlight fell and
Tumbled through the dust pane
A smile on its face.
All faces forward
And all mouths shut
The meditative silence
Propped up by the hum
And for a moment
If only for two
We might all sit back and
Live in two times of space between
The fretful embark and the doughy step-off
The bus.
