taking measure
i leave for the office
very early
we're early people
my bosses and i
new york is the city that never sleeps
see that man bent over there?
he's packing it in
it was barely 7 a.m.
his job
was done for the day
at this spot
anyway
soon
that empty street
will be filled with people
walking
from
the subway
to
their
offices
its amazing
how fast
an empty street
can fill
if you follow me
(as zipcode10024)
on
instragram
you'd see
how different
it looks
from
day to day
at
7 a.m.
the other morning
i had
a
9 a.m. appointment
the number
of
people
on
the street
was
beginning
to increase
by the time
i got back
to
times square
the crowds
were
overwhelming
that man
taking
measurements
for some project or other
would not
have been able
to stand there
and
get
a clear view
an accurate measurement
i bet
he like me
prefers
the empty early morning street
what time do you go to work?
is it crowded?
