Hey, welcome to the subway
I am the gatekeeper
You are going to need to swipe
Sorry, I will be right back
Sir, stop bending the metro card
You are hurting my friend
Oh, keep it up Sir
I really have all day
My job has perks
I am the entrance
To the underground
Wait, I will be right back
Sir, please don’t jump
The last genius
Received a summons
Yes, you can call me
A people person
I love to see
People run
To catch
My friends
S,4,5,6 and 7
And metro north
We all live here
In grand central
Station
Well I wish I could chat
It’s the morning rush
And there’s a lot of
New friends to meet
Hello, sir
Welcome
To grand central
Hope you
Make it
To work on time

You've given life to the turnstile, I who ride the NYC Metro everyday, 4,5,6, and the C. totally understand.
Very good write for a true New Yorker as I. The reference to Grand Central Station, a Landmark staple of NYC.
Great work picturing it to those who do not know.

The gate keeper was mentioned in the New York visit of Digit lol
Liked the bringing of real people into a piece of good writing,
There is so much fiction around, even if this gate keeper is a general write he has started to live in another dimension.
I write sometimes about Dragons and just like to think that as they are written of or thought of so they will be someplace out there in the ether.
Go well, Yours Ian.T
