it was your first time
on a rush hour train
you took up two seats
with your bags and girth
and compulsively chatted
with anyone
who glanced across your sightline.
Perhaps it was nerves or excitement
which made you so garrulous
I would guess
with your handlebar mustache,
sweatpants, and socks-with-sandals
you are a visitor in our city.
I'm glad that guy
gave you an RX bar
a small generosity
to welcome you to the Chi.
