Jr High

Early September.
Cold smoke was starting to form
As I waited

My first day
in my new school uniform
charcoal grey and maroon

First time on the bus
feel like vomiting all over myself
and the bus stop

Bus…………………..

Stop…

Bus?

6:45

6:55

7:05

waiting
and waiting
and waiting

My Dad’s 79’ Gran Torino was my chauffeur
And yet I still wished
for the big yellow piece of shit school bus
to come

Never went to school that day
