As a cornucopia of images flooded your eyes,
you at once thought and believed
that the world around you were moving.
you at once thought and believed
that the world around you were moving.
From then on, you feared shutting your eyes;
your illusion has claimed a victim
in you who did not want your world to stop.
Ever curious, ever naive, quite the opposite,
the people of this Third World said,
"Our jeepney is moving, let's count the stops!"
The Philippine Jeepney
Smooth suspensions?
Climate-conditioned?
Comfortable?
Safe?
Pricey?
The philippine jeepney:
just like your life,
the ride does not define you;
you define it.
