They need to make a sitcom about the MTA.
From the track workers to the token booth clerks
and the conductors. The people that ride the train.
The cops that patrol them and the homeless that
occupy the trains and stops. Episodes on the attractions.
The Christmas tree, Rockefeller Center, The Yankee game.
The hot dog eating contest. Coney Island, stopping at Canarsie
Pier to fish and the parade route. Grand Central, Port Authority,
Penn Station. This is the NYC Brass band and Saw Lady.
The fellas that sing do wop and the others that brake dance.
A littering summons and a fair beater. Pick pockets, criminals,
Train surfers, tourists taking a wrong train getting in trouble.
A lost child. SoHo, Madison ave. And so on . . . . . . I’m going to the
Garden for a concert, the hockey game is on. The top rank fight are here.
The javits center boat and car show. The food vendors and bootleg dvd
peddlers.
