Hump Day Poetry – Week 10 – Man on Bus Stop

hdp-banner

Out walking with my companion

We came across a man on a bus stop.

Said man on bus stop stops us

Asks me a most unsavoury question.

Can he perform a lewd act upon my person?

I am momentarily taken aback.

I ask him what day it is.

He says Thursday looking mistakenly expectant.

I say: I am sorry but I do not perform

Said lewd acts of a Thursday.

Said man then looks to my companion.

Companion says: You heard him

He doesn’t perform lewd acts of a Thursday.

We walk off smug in how we handled

Said man on bus stop.

    Oh nasty situation, all around …. clearly …. for you …. and for the kid who also faced some similar situation. How awful. But you’ve managed to spin the poem that highlights this perverted circumstance with at least a touch of humor and dignity.

Please feel free to comment, I appreciate your thoughts.
