The Market-Frankford Line

Down the street, some cigarettes, a soda bottle, raisenettes; Up the stairs, a sticky floor, before the Market-Frankford door; Last inside, the beggar man, please spare a dollar if you can; Wedged behind, an old receipt, please get yourself a thing to eat; Look outside, the evening sky, the mottled buildings passing by; Sitting on, a windowsill, a cat is staring staying still; Down the stairs, a sticky floor, beyond the Market-Frankford door; Up the street, some cigarettes, a soda bottle, raisenettes.
