Far Rockaway VIA JFK
 Underground I wait a smell of bleach and hot dogs mixes in the air Lights overhead brighter than the sun Walls white with a blue stripe at the top Floors with yellow bumpy edges, screaming STAND BACK! as a C train comes in behind me, scrapping said wall brakes squealing as stainless steel comes to a screeching halt doors open, releasing a sea of people toward the stairs while I count my blessings that I don't take that train anymore So, I wait near the express track And I hear a noise in the distance a steadily increasing vibration in the rails as a mysterious wind from the tunnel slowly turns into a large gust headlights become brighter as my hair slowly begins to move fly off with that wind bring on the noise bring on that big gust WHOOSH! I step in and I take my seat right near the window as we move away from the station, into the darkness only illuminated by the same light bulbs you find in your kitchen lights turning into a blur and I realize that I am now a part of the same gust as we pass that same C train, leaving it in it's stainless steel dust lights flickering as the train rocks back and forth We meet two people on the way, Euclid and Grant Reincarnated into avenues and streets respectively and then, sunlight! as we stop at a few more stations before making the turn towards the civilization away from civilization The Rockaways Aaah Jamaica Bay. Right after JFK Watching the planes take off it looks as if the train is racing that big 757 to the end of the runway but of course, the plane always wins and then it flies away Sunlight reflecting off of the water below beach in the distance patches of white and green scream, HEY! I'm over here now! And off into the sunset this train goes Stopping at that really Broad Channel to give people a chance to go to Rock Away in that Park followed by a few more stops along the way As the stainless steal glimmers just as brightly as the water out yonder parallel to the tracks and before you know it the speaker blares one last time "THIS IS MOTT AVENUE, FAR ROCKAWAY. LAST STOP ON THIS TRAIN" as you read this and think, is this what he meant when he was talking about Mott and the Rockaways? all to do is all over again another day Until then, it's back up to Manhattan Get the line up As the operator's radio says "Apple train on 2 track, call into tower with your call letters" Doors close Double-shot from the C/R and were off again Up to 207 A few stops short of heaven But, considering that the Cloisters isn't too far away, it's pretty damn close And so goes another day on the A with the rollsign flashing Far Rockaway VIA JFK
