Polkadot umbrella
Draped over a linoleum floor
The next stop is
Hewes Street
Hewn from farmer folk
This Hewitt, now harnessed
To the city, to
Global capital
This is a Manhattan bound
M Local train
The next stop is
Marcy Avenue
Itβs raining
And heβs off
Off to where? We wonder
He knows?
He knows not
Curiosity his curse
The elevator
Is at
The center
Of the platform
