What’s that odd rumbling?
A vintage streetcar rounds Church.
I look up. Day. Made.
-Matt Foley (Train #162 [1914 SF])
Harmonic heaven.
A man, his voice and guitar
Serenades us all.
-Matt Foley (Train #1426)
A man is squabbling,
Something about basketball.
She smiles politely.
-Matt Foley (Train #1501)
He does not step down.
“Don’t break my door” driver yells.
I step down for him.
-Matt Foley (Bus #5408)
WTF Muni?
“No” street? What are you thinking?
It’s “Noe” street. Duh.
-Matt Foley
It’s early AM
Piercings on everybody
I break eye contact
-Matt Foley
I wait an hour
Yet I’m solo on the bus.
I don’t like this route.
-Matt Foley (Bus #8562)
You are a weird bus
Winding around Myra Way
Where are you going?
-Matt Foley (Bus #8526)
Man with little hair
He’s wearing socks and slippers
Quite fashionable.
-Matt Foley (Bus #8562)
Up and down the hills
“Please hold on.” Yeah, no kidding.
I think I’ll be sick.
-Matt Foley
We’re all on our phones
Pretending that we have texts
We are such losers
-Matt Foley
Teresita bus,
Give me back my 26!
It is not the same.
-Matt Foley
I just realized,
My Fast Pass is worth more than
My cellular phone
-Matt Foley
It’s Saturday night,
And I’m here writing haikus
I am really cool.
-Matt Foley
We play cat and mouse
Chasing you up 24th
I always win though
-Matt Foley
Please come back dear bus
I miss your roar up my street
I don’t feel at home.
-Matt Foley
We made eye contact
You decided to drive past
Now I will walk home
-Matt Foley
Once I rode this bus
Ew. What am I sitting on?
I’ll find a new bus.
-Matt Foley
Finally a J!
“My final stop is Glen Park”
Good thing there’s Bart.
