2:15pm. Walking in sunny Chelsea
2:30pm in Chelsea Market.
Late for a date but at least I look great.
7:15pm, Times Square.
Showing off my lantern, pre-ghost tour.
A homeless man said “You’re beautiful.”
My lantern brings all the hobos to the yard.
9:45pm, the 1 train home.
Completely empty car but for the family of 4 that got on with me.
Shared experience of awe at empty 1 train on a weekend night.
