Waiting for the Shuttle, with Coffee

airportexpressDown at O’Hare
Waiting for a shuttle
I was going  to take the bus
(Really)
But the sign by the door
Suburban shuttles
And the cheerful Israeli
At the counter
Best price
Cheap price
Make you happy
Everyone happy
Somehow
I think the bus
Costs less than sixty bucks.

The man ahead of me
In the Starbucks line
Paid for my coffee
Accidentally
I gave him two bucks
He spotted me seventeen cents

Everybody happy
