Song: The Sound of Silence
Cliché: Writing on the wall
Image: Three

I talk with you, again
on the elevated train.
No more writing on the wall
to ten thousand people, 
maybe more.
Graffiti ignored,
it’s just you and me
side by side
engrossed
in fast finger talk
to someone else
before the train goes down.
