Time Slip
The bus leaves First and Pike And I open my new old book, Just rescued from the thrift store. A yellowed schedule tumbles out, Seattle Municipal Railway, 1924, With a note in faded pencil: Dance tonight at hall - Joe. Outside the rain-splashed windows A Model T glides by.

Time Slip

The bus leaves First and Pike
And I open my new old book,
Just rescued from the thrift store.
A yellowed schedule tumbles out,
Seattle Municipal Railway, 1924,
With a note in faded pencil:
Dance tonight at hall – Joe.
Outside the rain-splashed windows
A Model T glides by.

Laurie Sutherland
