playing free taxi

walking out of the bank
almost 100 degrees
second day in a row
man calls me over
asks a favor
a ride down the road about a mile
never even thought about
picking up a hitch hiker
looking into this man’s eyes
made me decide to trust
him in the 100 degrees to give
him a free taxi ride
he listened to the music playing
told me where he needed to go
thanked me and called me a godsend
didn’t even notice the 100 degrees anymore…
