Scenes From Bus Rides Home


# 10 The Accident

I, in my seat sat back, so tired
From work all day that I'd acquired
Down at the auto plant in town
Eight to eight, twelve hours down.

The bus's engine hummed its roars,
Vibrations traveled through its floors
And soon, I in them fell asleep,
As did my legs and my two feet.

I was asleep when it had come-
A dump truck no one saw where from
That without stop slammed into us
On our way home inside this bus.

No one was injured, all ok,
Few minor cuts and scrapes in play.
Policemen came, huge tow trucks two,
Another bus to get into.

Such are the things that I've gone through
On bus rides home a time or two.
These rides are int'resting enough
Without this accidental stuff.

Oh well, another late night ride,
This one did jolt my sleepy pride.
But, thank God I can for you write
This scene from my bus ride tonight.
