Him watching me out
the corner of his eyes.
He’s rather shifty and a
bit menacing looking.
I’m contemplating wither
or not to move seats …
I decide to move.
Careful, not obvious.
I can feel his eyes
burning into Me
like I’m paper bellow
a magnifying glass
and he the burning sun,
I’m moments away
from catching fire.
I get the feeling he wants
to touch me,
is it all in my head?
Oh god I shouldn’t have
worn this dress.
I mean it’s just a few drinks
with the girls after all.
I’m watching the back
of his bald head wishing
I could see through
the skin and bone,
See what he’s thinking.
he’s getting up,
he’s leaving the bus.
before he gets off he turns
around and has
one final
look up my dress.
Pig!

I think you actually put me on the bus and I saw the scene unfolding. Be careful, as misspelled words detract from your reader's experience with your poetry.0 points
