I have missed out on time.
The 4 has come and gone.
This 5 is packed.
I wedge my body between 2 elbows
and the door.
The deaf black boy cannot hear
Jamaica weaving out the radio.
If I sway out of sync with this ride,
The largest women will whisper,
"crazy, crazy" behind their bibles.
Men have giants and bulls
sitting on their heads.
They want me to move away.
Out of the way.
It's this way
to town.
