Bay Area Regretful Transit

The BART train
    at rush hour: one surf board
for five hundred people

          ~~~~~

BART train riders--
    forced to share someone's
tuna and sweet pickle sandwich

          ~~~~~

BART train riders--
    skinny suits to Spear street,
sandals to Silicone Valley

          ~~~~~

BART train riders--
    expressionless
while clandestinely farting

          ~~~~~

BART train riders
   telling off their Boss
in a daydream
