Sure. Metro was and is so frequently running in Venice. I was often in the area there visiting a friend or two. Always a lively time at the beach and on the Metro/Big Blue/Culver buses. A cast of funny characters who embodied the "crazy, colorful" neighboorhod always got on the bus creating a stir of sorts, not so much dangerous or dramatic though. Just some animated dudes, usually high on something :-)
“Huffing frustration” — is perfect. It made me think of an old train letting out steam.
Great poem.
