light

on the brooklyn bound j train, francesco tried to determine if this woman who looked just like joni mitchell knew the asian guy sitting next to her, to whom she was speaking passionately. at essex street the guy stood up and left the train, and i muttered, “well, there’s your answer.” she continued speaking, now to no one in particular, until we crossed over the manhattan bridge and she caught my eye, pointed out the window and said, “look at that light, it’s unbelievable!”
