In the Middle of Central
Gracious and grand
convenient and central.
Spacious. Splendid. Station.
Busier than, ...
(sorry)
Swarming pan-directional legions.
Thousands swell to tens of thousands.
Myriads of wasps from the ivory towers above mingle
with the phalanx of army ants from the canyons below
A tsunami of work-a-day burst
through every door. North. East. South. West.
They come! They Crowd!
They mass! 5:03 Flash Mob, five days a week.
They are HERE!
Shuffle step, one forward, two to the right
tightly bound still fiercely independent
forage they must the
tunnels of ordinary sameness;
Lackawanna, Chappaqua, Mahopac, Webatuck, Naugatuck, Wappingers Falls, Ossining, Matamoras! Departing in two minutes!
Close, so very close. Too close. Aqua-
Velva mixes with Chanel
shaken and stirred,
trenchant, pedestrian, urban sweat!
Throngingly, the mobile mosh pit must run
Boob to back & nut
to butt,
daily they make their quest for home.
