From My Window To The Road Below Poem by RIC BASTASA

From My Window To The Road Below



a brown boy
beside his pregnant mother
hand gripping

a bus stops
it is going to the mountain
loaded with
boxes and bags
and a crowd of
people

the boy sees his father
carrying
a net bag of fish

he gets away from
mother and
runs across the road
where father
is waiting

an over speeding
motorcycle is
coming

screeching sound
and screams
and then

silence, i, close my eyes
and walk away
