But you smiled at me
Stranger, I've never seen you before
But you rose from your seat
On the F train so
I could sit
And I shared your body
Warmth on a cold winter's day
In a subway. Stranger,
I don't know who you are
But you followed me from
20 steps behind in a lonely lane
On a dark night.
Stranger, you don't know who I am
But you told me of
Your watch-obsessed girlfriend
Maybe you were drunk.
And you stranger, you met me
At an ATM machine
And told me stories
Of how many people
Abused your body, here
And here and here.
Stranger, you're no
Stranger to me.
