August 2017
Portrait
rainbow badge
on the backpack
at the sandalled feet
of the Tufts student
she and I sit patient
in the stilled trolley
at Lechmere Station
ten in the morning
slight & slender figure
twentythree at most
closecropped hair
and modest hornrims
soft semi-smile
as she sits reading
the Boston Metro
& the trolley starts
