“I was young here. Riding the subway with my small book as though to defend myself against the same world: you are not alone, the poem said, in the dark tunnel.”
“But most of all, I like to watch people. Sometimes I ride the subway all day and look at them and listen to them. I just want to figure out who they are and what they want and where they are going.”
Anne Bentley / Louise Glück, October / Jack Anderson, A Poet's Guide to the Subway / Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451 / Holly Warburton
