Signs of the times
So in the métro
This guy jumps over the turnstile.
It's not a vagabond
Not a clochard
Not a sans-abris
Not a sans-le sou.
Just a very ordinary looking young man
Backpack
Music gizmos stuck to his ears
His phone gizmo hooked to them
And too much in a rush to purchase a ticket?
No, no just not bothered.
His lifestyle is rich
Local transit sould be free.
