Ode to the Subway

Green

Somewhat clean

To the Bronx and Brooklyn

And all between

Reminiscent

Of a submarine

A million stairs

Screaming quads

The train is here!

What are the odds?

Get a seat

Will or won't I?

Pray not near

The sweaty, mean guy

Automated voices

Advise and warn

Doors held open

The voices scorn!

Mostly efficient

Entirely cool

I'll miss you lots
