Ten Minutes

I'm standing here, waiting
the first angry drops of rain 
demonstrating how much this shelter sucks 
There's a rough looking old man
eating ice cream with a painting knife 
and a teen hitting a vape pen
It's cold
Winter not letting anyone forget 
I feel a million eyes stare 
paranoid as I hide my face 
In a blink the bus is here
another blip seared into my head
