I read it. Very nice. I understand there are many that live in abandoned subways. Working in NYC for 25 years one just gets used to the homeless and mentally disturbed.
But i’ll never forget being on the 1 train and the doors not opening at the stop. I got frantic and then what I thought was a terribly mentally disturbed filthy miscreant told me with a steady voice and perfect diction that only the fist five car doors open. I thought she had lost touch with all reality decades earlier. But she sounded as sane and stable as any person I ever knew. That event stayed with me.

Yeah, one gets used to the mentally disturbed that run the place.

Thanks, so glad you enjoyed it. It’s always a wonderful day when a piece of mine hits the Diary.
