the high five

Recommended Posts

got off the train and went for the underground tunnel that connects platforms... looked down the stairs and was confronted with the herds morning stampede coming fast at me. bewildered, i hugged the hand rail and took it one step at a time.... making it to the tunnel below i creeped around the corner and edged along the wall, moving against the current of black suits. up ahead i saw you with headphones on, a bit flustered and obviously fed-up. you crossed your arms and leaned on the wall in silent protest. you were blocking my only path through, so i slowed my pace further [no reason to be in a rush] ...gave a sympathetic smile then leaned against the wall with you.... -some strange moment of mutual understanding while a mass of zombies hurry past-...

then you laughed and motioned to move on. as you went by me you raised your hand: "give us a high five mate". i obliged.
