Inside busways away from downtown locker docked a bike wielding pauper all while playing Simon & Garfunkel’s The Boxer
Wide were his eyes while docking his bike
Inside his awkward stride he gave the song a like
All waiting frozen like a statue he became among the painted lines, and under the bus stop sign, 5 minutes later in heading west was the 29
The slow chill quiet 29 was his preferred ride that stood for mental peace
He reached for the bike rack to mount his mountain bike beast
And inside the womb of 29’s nurturing reign
The back of the bus became his writers den seat
The new meet for his writing ways beat the 28x by far who flies down the parkway with comet-comet-heat
The 28x usually goes to fast like a Having Belligerence Conquering Comet and a furious “fun” “fun” cartoon fireball
His new bus taking ways was on it, and for his sonnets, he gave the 29 a 3 weeks ago call
29! You still blow the air against my bike
29! I like your peaceful arms down Steubenville Pike
29! While making my Today stanzas, your travelling ways has a ride by right by The Crafton Ingram Plaza
29! I don’t have to work under the blue box’s clever cleaver
I’m a firm believer that I can work somewhere else as a Busy Beaver
29! In need to work somewhere else part time, and leave my current job behind, even though it means less benefits and dimes
But you my dear 29 are a bus route that is hard to find
