After the rain

After the rain,
we will hopefully arrive
in New York.

I'm not sure how much longer
I can stay on this bus,
even if it's not very full.

I see sis
has just unplugged
her laptop from the A/C plug
on the ceiling, so I wonder
if she's coming back.

This seat
is right by the bathroom
and it smells pretty bad.
Unfortunately we
had so much stuff
to move back to her dorm,
my backpack barely fit
through the aisle,
and we each had
85 pounds of luggage,
when the limit was 50,
so I plopped in the nearest seats

We've been on this bus
nearly 4 hours now,
and didn't even get a pit stop.
Sis pointed out Manhattan, though,
so that means we should be nearly there.

And the rain is still falling....
