not a place where the poor have cars,
but where the rich use public transportation_
and it turns out bikes truly don't count;
too personal, taking much more space,
not effective enough to combat the
big-bang-like inertia of urbanity,
very much making assumptions
about people's bodies; ideally, yes,
bikes and buses both, but given just one,
buses
here in the city of the angels I'm glad
that hyper-masculine fit engineers have
looped, have found a way to find trains
glamorous again
for the second responsibility is space
an ending
of reach
