black eye

by marvin d goldfarb - Aquarius


<pre>
a crowded bus
i climbed upon it
i saw a seat
but someone sat on it
yes I HAD MY EYE ON A SEAT
but another sat on it
this gave me a black eye
gosh darn it
</pre>

Reason for writing:

    
based on a pun. i try to visualize what a foreign born person or a child would think we he or she would here our idiomatic expressions.
