Lo Press

Incessant rain as I make my way to the subway. Commute on half full trains; going too early, returning too late, and the relief in always finding a seat. The book lies open in front of me but when we've crossed the water to another borough I realize I haven't understood a single word. Meaning gets lost in sleeplessness.

You are not tired
so much as you are
hollow.

The train lets you on,
regardless.
