A rolling trash can
Outspoken inmates advise all
Desperate transit

Men too drunk to stand,
Two, lost foreign backpackers,
Dodginess abounds
They say that hard times
Bring out the best in people-
NOT on the Fourteen.

Crowded and quite loud.
Men discuss smoking blunts once
On the 14 line.

Daily we ride down
the Miracle Mile on the

the 14 Mission
scares me more than I’d admit
I’d rather take BART

Takes me where I need to go.
Great Scott! the Mission
The boy like a dog
Urine, a tag, graffiti
I smell acetone.

The 14X Bus
is very different from
the 14 Mission
—Pete
bus of drunks and punks
it dazzles all our senses
but smell, touch, and taste
up Mission, then down–
like junkies at the BART stop
on a grander scale
Ev’ry five minutes?
That’s a big MUNI pipe dream
The 14 Mission
