5873. HERE'S THE MOMENT

HERE'S THE MOMENT
Flatfish, flatfeet, riding the rails; the sweat was
pouring off bodies on the platform. Railmen working
were standing around  -  awaiting the one-twenty to pass.
Out there, on the platform, two cops apprehended a girl  -  
some crazy wench screaming on about getting home to
New Brunswick. They swore they'd lock her up if she didn't
pipe down  -  'causing a disturbance', 'public nuiscance', they
went on. Her boyfriend, as crazy as she, yelled back at her 
while she yelled at them. Fun in the sun for everyone. The train 
came and we were whisked away, leaving an open-ended story.
