59th St., N Train

There is a poem by Jack Agüeros I like:

59th St., N Train

10 o'clock.

She rides east.

I ride west.

I ask God to do things for me

And when he does, I don't notice.

He made me a gift of her love

And another now of her friendship.

But I cannot quell my greed,

It's her love I want:

Riding, on the same train

In any direction.


(thanks, Martín, as usual.)
