what was that?

maybe the bus/train is the most exciting part of the first day of my last semester adventure experiment. the unexpected lurks at every bus stop. you never know what kind of queens or hipster jesus freaks are going to get on. the four queens who get on at West Portal are not really surprising except that they're so young maybe thirteen to fifteen and so loud which is probably more insecurity than confidence but still it's working. there they are, copying LeBeija's walk from Paris is Burning right there on the moving train. taking turns to see who can do it better. talking about his ex-boyfriend and why those bitches always looking at me. faux-hawks and purses, and maybe a couple of anne taylor sweaters. that's san francisco on the M Oceanview. but on the 29 Sunset, watch out, some jesus lovers talking about meeting the lord, loving yourself, the lord loves gangsters but the devil is punking them and then they're punking other people, but the have amazing energy those gangsters, there's so much to learn, and more of the lord, and something about the father. what? is this for real? they're sitting behind me. the woman sitting next to be is rolling her eyes and laughing under breath. we all get off at geary and i've got to get a look at these comedians. not what i expected. they look like san franciso funky, not conservative and bland, but ratty/earthy. now i'm scared.
