"open on the right,"
the automatic voice says
the doors will, that is.


we both chomp on gum
as we descend into the
dark of a tunnel.


embarking on a
journey which requires bags,
two men catch a train


acne and flip-flops
make the man appear younger
than he truly is.


her tired eyes rest
lightly as the subway rocks
her like a cradle.


sleepy hands open
the front door of our home as
the city sighs low.
