Friendship Heights Metro Station and Related Proposal for Alignment Adjustments to the Purple Line (for WMATA) Emperor X

You were playing Brighten the Corners
In the mall overhead
But we never talked
So I never said
That I found you impressive

I never saw you again
But I'm reminded a lot
When the doors chime open
At my favorite stop
Or a song from that album
Plays on my headphones

And 20 years later
When I yell into
The empty void
Between the ground
And Tenleytown Metro
And I hear my words
Returned in a Swedish accеnt

And 30 years later
When I yеll again
My voice is blurred
And hides my careful
Choice of words
And my shouting turns to birdsong
