5. Craig Arnold, "Your friend's arriving on the bus"

A diffuse but amusing-enough narrative poem. A guy trying to meet a bus in Spain almost gets mugged, has communication problems, etc... My main objection to it is that it doesn't have any sharpness to it. It's a short story, not a true POEM.

I have no idea who Craig Arnold is, and I'm avoiding the explanations in the back of the book. I'd give it a 6.
