A man moved

Away from me

On this train

And it made me feel bad. 

Do I smell bad?

Am I taking up too much space? 

Is my skirt too short - is he moving to see me better?

Am I giving off bad vibes?

Does he just want to be in a corner seat for better sleeping ability?

Was he reading over my shoulder 

As I wrote a different draft about

A different person

Hoping he wouldn't be singled out next?

I guess I’ll never know.

I'm getting off at canal.

It's harder to write about things when you're happy. 

When you're happy your mind is calm

And not searching for something external to hold on to. 

Just on the L again.
