Tweet I didn’t see her get on the train because of the inebriated college kids bouncing around, taking swigs of Bailey’s being offered by the Hispanic guy they almost got into a fight with. Between the posturing and half-hearted restraint, I caught a glimpse of her. She was half a train car away, cozy in… Continue reading 20-minute Metro Crush (May 16/17 Edition)

Caught Up, Swept Away, Crushed, Whole Again
Tweet At the beginning it’s easy to get caught up. Caught up in the rush of the crush. In the glorious spin of possibilities. In the wild imaginings of what most certainly will be.
