Make Way
There a few ways to guarantee a seat on the subway. And one way is being homeless person with rotting flesh. I must definitely have a cold, because I couldn’t really detect the rotting stench. This homeless guy got on the train with all his bags, and dumped everything to side before promptly sitting down next to this Russian woman in her mink. Who jumped out of her seat faster then if someone lit her coat with a match. Slowly, people started to get up. And I can sense the homeless guy felt victory in his hands. He immediately expanded to the corner stretching across like he posing to have portrait painted. If only one of those MTA folks with their blue latex glove would just come in and toss him out of the train. I’ve seen it done once during a morning commute. Luckily, I got off in a few stops. It’s just a matter of time before he clears out half a car full of commuters during rush hour.
