are people really awake for the toronto rush hour? on the subway i see them seemingly asleep behind their newspapers too sedated for much irony or wit this early in the morning subways were made for big eastern cities like this it seems where there's the place called home and work and who really cares what's above ground in between and there in the bad light i have more than enough time to think of our last weeks together in our poor desert paradise peter tosh blaring out of the garage together at last because there was just no other way (and everybody sang) (let jah be praised) sublime greek salads from dion's on the way but sometimes i wonder just what you'd say if you could see what i see hear what i hear smell the oil and hot dogs cooking up on the sidewalk the sudden rush of wind as the train pulls into a stop taking people off to another day then as it leaves the dull metallic thunder i can still remember your face well enough to smile inside and wonder |
