this station is underground
but birds still found their way in
here
i can see you and you can see me
but we don't look at anybody
voices ring out from above
that almighty instruction -
      ELEVATORS OUT OF SERVICE
      STAND BEHIND THE YELLOW LINE
      DELAY DUE TO WEATHER
It rings out in 4 different languages
we all lift our heads like peaks of waves
and fall back to our faithful phones
the voice is off
pigeons strut by me
we all pretend
we all wait
