Marks from cheap jewelry around her neck

And purple hair that was a wreck.

Her hat was held together with duct tape

And the frizzy hair fought to escape the hat.

Her arm was tattooed with the shape 

Of a somewhat blurry cat.

Flipping through a book

Her hungry eyes took in

Words like lungs take oxygen. 

Her purple curls stood out from the rest of us

There’s so much beauty

In the quiet chaos of the girl on the bus
