wet streets


a week or two ago
when it was still
unseasonably 
warm
which by the way it no longer is
took this
during
my walk
to 
the subway

i love walking
no matter the weather
well 
ok
 if 
it was snowing
or
if
 there was a monsoon
i'd 
take the local to the express

but
generally speaking
i
walk
to the express

my thinking is
if there's a longer than 5 minute wait for the local
i can walk to the express in 8minutes
why stand around waiting

lately
at 6:15ish
the wait is
10-15 minutes

seriously

i think the clock showing how long till the next train
is 
fabulous

no standing on the platform
staring down the 
dark
empty
track
wishing the train would come

how did we ever do that
