[NINA]
I used to think we lived at the top of the world
When the world was just a subway map
And the one-slash-nine
Climbed a dotted line to my place
[BENNY]
There’s no nine train now
[NINA]
Right…
I used to think the Bronx was a place in the sky
When the world was just a subway map
And my thoughts took shape
[NINA/BENNY]
On that fire escape…
[NINA]
Can you remind me of what it was like
At the top of the world?
[BENNY]
Come with me
We begin July with a stop at my corner fire hydrant
