Other
I know it’s a statistical impossibility, but everyone
else in the waiting room of Baltimore’s Amtrak Station
is Chinese.
When my New York train is called, I gather my things
and join the line going down the stairway to the tracks.
They’ve beaten me to it, the old people the fastest!
Those lingering about the rear look like menacing
wrestlers, but are most polite.
“We ask, please, you get other train.”
