The vent commutes


This was a wet black mac day that good Carriage came slam to my feet that day. Wall-to-wall back flat we sat across

On my lap my friend wrapped

her limp legs and looked back at…

Eyes on the other hand, my mouth and hers in sync Everyone else was buried three deep listening

Bat to bat we rattle chat rattle chat

Lips clatter and her head turns back to back to back And they laugh like we’re an act.
