Metro Montreal #93 - Burgundy Blazer Boy

I had a bag day at work :(

When I got in the metro, I grabbed a sit right away,

just wanted to sleep a bit on my way home.

Then there was this young boy, wearing a burgundy conductor's blazer,

with a black & white pattern leggings. (well, meggings :)

He looked tired too, maybe a bad day for him too?

He ran his fingers through his blond curly fringe.

How could I miss this image?!

So I took out my sketchbook with all my strength,

capturing the moment.

He caught me drawing him, but he didn't mind,

he was still running his fingers through his hair,

his attitude was just like a cat.

Then he had to get off the metro, so this is all I got.

J'ai eu une mauvaise journée au travail,

le moment quand je voulais fermer mes yeux pour une sièste,

ce gars-là avec une veste bordeaux de chef d’orchestre,

m'avait réveillé.

Je crois qu'il avais remarqué que je lui dessinais,

mais cela ne lui dérangeait pas, c'étaient ces cheveux qu'il arrangeait.

Comme un chat s'est pilé dans un divan.

J'ai pas eu plus de temps pour finir son croquis car il devait sortir le métro,

je crois que c'est pas mal tout :)
