34 street

Late night on the subway

two drunks folded neatly by the wall

happy

in their own way.

In the corner seat a woman 

rolling her ankles to 

ease the day’s weight.

The man beside her

doing the same

without noticing.

Two boys

college aged

speaking in the tired pitch

of day end.

In this small corner of the city

everybody is dreaming of home.
