Missing His Stop

Sometimes nothing happens.

He dozes off in the streetcar

And misses his stop.

Now getting off the streetcar

He finds himself in a strange

Place he has never been

And where nothing is familiar

At the end of the platform

There are a set of stairs that

lead to God Knows Where.
