As the Cable Car lumbered down Nob
Hill, the rattle of the trolley was a volley
And he ducked and tucked his head
Under the fuselage. Clutching rosary,
He offered up a hurried Hail Mary
Just as The Commander Gave “All Clear”
And The Conductor announced “Next
Stop”. Relieved, of having to parachute he
Put himself on mute to silence his crying.
