Lover (Free verse) by Dental Panic
with a bit of bad luck
you're in the wrong tube today
descending the stairs
at the eastside of the river
you'll miss your train
but you never miss your train
itâs the one at seven fifty
and youâre lucky
thereâs a place at the window
and nobody in the opposite seat staring at you
then you get on a bus
the 8 has a stop nearby
the 3 departs more frequently
which one you choose depends
on your mood
the weather
the shoes you wear
a whiff of coffee a cigarette
the driverâs face
take care
