Great imagery in a melodramatic setting. Well done.10 here. Jim
I just wonder how creepy must the taxi be with those melancholic moving sounds of cadence in between the persona's pace... Deeper than the other lines I must say.
Shakespeare would've stirred in his sentimental grave. What! no tears? Hysteria being the norm of Philippine partings, your question mocks the mushiness of most mortals. Would that comings and goings were as routine as toothbrushing, we'd be better off, won't we? I take that back, people being so, it's anyone's privilege to be poised or puerile. Like your point of being - what else - to the point. Bravo!
That indeed is the world! Beautiful crafting! Great! Congrats Eddie!

I must agree with the comments before me, this is a piece that catches the reader and puts them in the poem. The description and language that you used was wonderful. Well done.

I must say the first 'stanza'...beginning lines...plea, touched my heart...read it over and over again...I loved the description of what he was wearing and his haste with fare already at hand...I am not sure what the taxi driver did or the rest mattered to me...I am going to read it all again just to be sure. 10 for this first time read.
quite unique in presentation.......very well expressed......
A story of goodbyes and separation... very good descriptions! Love it!
The hack bucked and sputtered and the taxi crept, . Travelling experience you have beautifully explained in this poem.10
