Small things out of order,
A failure of certainty:
Waiting among the silent
      Wondering
      -- Did I miss it? --
      Unable
To voice the confusion
If the bus  did not come.
Comfortless rain-soaked world
Huddling hunched as delay
Stretching, knowing another comes
      But
      Under it
      -- What if it, too, does not come? --
The wondering: of questions
Without answers remain questions.
Single, not a double. Not normal.
Perhaps the last bus passed that way,
Eyes skipping over; or perhaps late.
No answer is given, 
No, but --
No question is asked.
