Long Island RR Crossing

on a LIRR train from Montauk.
Racing through the southern tier of Suffolk county.
Cars stopped at train crossings.
The blank faces of commuters released from work___
I so wish I was one of them.
Accepting my fate of 9 to 5 job monotony.
If in a car
Home only minutes away
Wife or second wife
Children waiting.
Oh joy___
Instead
Jamaica bound
To Clinton Hill
At least an hour away
Oh joy will have to wait___
