Wrong Way
My Days Are Numbered (9/?)

Photo and poem (also in alt text)

#nyc #newyork #subway #poetry #poems #poetsofbsky #lifttothesky #writingcommunity

Slipped through a buzzing door
and dared to think I was slick
to save three bucks in this place
where it costs money to breathe.

Extra hour on the train,
swear the sign said Uptown,
but now I am in Brooklyn
and my phone is dying.

Extra hour to get back,
assuming I can read.
But across the water spans
the Manhattan Bridge

and I get to go across twice,
seeing the blinking of the lives
of a million people who each pray
to take their trips the right way.

stone resting on
stone resting on
stone—
cairn of remembrance
of someone saying
they exist
an ancient kind of
X wuz here
