Jobsworth

[pomes]

Young and beautiful fun-filled people
Pouring on the bus in crowds
Laughter bubbling in the back seats
Smiles and banter, not too loud -
Flushed and tired and out of breath
Busty, angry, shrill, grey-haired
She wants to see some tickets, now!
The driver climbs the narrow stairs
Of course, they don't have tickets ready
(Paying fares won't make you rich!)
They passed one ticket through the window
Sharing's friendly! "You FAT BITCH!"
The thieves were younger, far more pretty,
Mostly no-one checks, that's true,
But I wish I'd spoken slightly louder
Though all I said was "How dare you?"
