Riding the Elephant

Victoria has some double-decker buses which I'm fond of riding. Here's a poem about it.

On the top deck of the double-decker bus
I sway in my seat, as if in a howdah,
as the driver navigates his beast
through the road construction, boasting
to the flagwoman, "She'll tilt, but
she won't tip over."
