Engine Number 5

Engine number 5
chugs along
The silhouette
the golden
etched
5 against
the red
metal
shimmers in the light

the street
of New York City
ablaze
with sirens
and fear
the playbills
of Broadway
flutter
as they wisp
up
into the dark sky

A single
light
at Tiffany's
waits
to be turned off
Engine number 5
chugs along
