toronto transit commission, or beauty in pockets

it is an early fall jacket evening
number 60 bus, steeles west to finch.
people with arms crossed
eyes on ceiling, floor -
anywhere but each other.
a woman beside me with too much perfume
and a white blond man with an accent i can't trace.

12:23 am, downsview station.
freshman boys with haughty laughter
and residence keys hanging about their necks like pendants.

106 to york university.
weighted eyes, weary bodies, soft voices.

sometimes i am so in love with the world.
