I stand on the subway with
my back propped up against
the doors, my shoulders
aching and heavy from the
day.
The crowded train and the
sounds of the brakes squealing
at each stop, grate on my
nerves until I feel as if I will
explode. From another car,
enters an old man in tat-
tered coat, soiled trousers,
and sole-less shoes. I instant-
ly feel sorry for him, that he
is poor - but then he begins
to play Tchaikovsky's "Sere-
nade Meloancolique" and a
smile sprouts on my face as
I realize that he is truly rich
indeed.
