(mostly) short poems on life and love

bus stop

May 23, 2019 by Michael Guerin

broken glass.
gum wrapper.
empty snapple bottle.
curiously, grains of sand
reminiscent
of the beach.

cars speed past
without a glance
in my direction
as i lean into the street
and look left
for a late
number seven bus.

to my right
a faded fedora shades
an old man’s
worn and weathered face
and fractured smile
which bobs
step by step
until he reaches
the rusted bench
and takes a seat.
