"...The last three rows are for smoking...
...There will be no questions answered by the bus driver...
...Please sit down mamn....
...PLEASE SIT DOWN MAMN!!!!...
...The next sound you hear will be a shot Mamn...."
mummbled Stan.
Jesus awoke some where around Pelzer.
Stan, the bus driver was as tanked up on speed
as any man Jesus had ever seen.
Jesus said... " lighten up Stan..."
...Walking up the isle Jesus looked at all the passengers
strewn about the seats that where not at all built to the human form
a leg bent around here...
both arms wrapped around the seat in front...
Stan was grinding his teeth,
Stan alway's ground his teeth.
He had 34 years behind the wheel of a Graydog bus.
He hated driving the bus.

Stan never slept.
Thus the emotional hiroshima...
Off the bus there was Stan, leaning aginst
the guard rail, smokin' a Camel.
Jesus said: "... You look alittle freaked out
I'm Jesus, Jesus of Nazereth, Pennsylvania..."
Stan said: " I hate drivin' that bus. I hate
all the Mrs. Meyer's of the world. Can you imagian
92 eyes on the back of your head for 8 or 10
hours. Their thought's ripping into your head
" Are we going to stop soon driver...?"
" Are you sure this is the right bus to Cleveland...? "
"...LET MY PEOPLE GO !!!!!! screamed
that crazy guy. I'm driving along, singin' a little
Bob Dylan to myself, when this frickin' guy
wakes up screamin'. Freaks out the whole bus,
and Stan's gotta go deal with him.
Brave. It's not really my thing.
I come from a long line of cowards,
Country second , maybe third...!!!
that's my family motto....
...You look alot like Jesus, did you know that ? ",
asked Stan lighting another Camel.
It was just then Mrs. Meyers stepped
her large self off the bus.
She turned, causing the gravity of the Earth
to shift a bit and saw Stan speaking with Jesus.
Jesus took this as a sign from Dad,
making his way outta that scene...
Mrs. Meyer said : " BUS DRIVER !!!!
I want a word with you..."
As the Earth shook with each large
Mrs.Meyers step, Stan pushed his hat
back on his head a way's and lit another Camel
snappin' the Zippo closed with a flick of his wrist.
Be well todo mundo,
