Another Jane

 Another Jane


I am on the bus to nowhere

And she slips in beside me

Her lithe frame barely there

Her dress is tattered and torn


She tries to smile

Her sadness remains

No I don’t know her name

Just another lost soul


She gets off at the next stop

Shuffles along the aisle

The driver seems annoyed

I step up and pay her fare


I sit back in my seat

Watching her disappear

I think of her sometimes

When I feel I’ve had enough


When life gets me down

When if seems a waste

I think of her half smile

The sadness contained


Never seen her again

Likely dead in some alleyway

Buried in a potter's grave

Another nameless Jane

I keep trying to find these people, figure out what it is that they did, and how I can apply that to my situation. So far nothing is coming out of my search.

Blog Test I am looking over my blogs in the past on this particular blog. I see that I am still testing the waters, and haven't developed my style yet. I haven't even settled on a particular signature yet. So I will continue to test things, and see if they get responses. So far no one really has responded, but I don't really care, because this is for my benefit, and maybe I want to publish stuff that doesn't matter to anyone else, so it doesn't matter to me what others really think, at not in reference to this blog. I have several other blogs, most of them are more pointed, and some of them are even private, so I will continue to publish in some form. There is no such thing as private, as even though I may make a blog private on the server, it is on the server and if at some time they decided to make it public it is well within their rights unless I pull the data of the server before it can go public. Any way I have a bunch of stuff to publish here now so tha...
