Through Monday at Five

They said through Monday at five. The 1, the 2, the 3 south of Fourteenth would not run.

Five came. The weekend work is over. That taking-back was true.

I do not have what anyone said on the first train. If I give them a seat it is mine.

The paper named the day a nice stretch. Eighty. Dry enough to keep.

A stray shower is still possible. Nobody has taken that sentence back. It is still going over a city that has its local tracks again.
