Revelations 21:19
"...and the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones..."
-- The apostle John describing new Jerusalem, King James Version
I go down to come up in this man made heaven.
The walls of the subte are tiled with gems created of earth, human
hands and love.
They walk by oblivious to Paradise only an arm' s length away.
I get on and off on just to quarry it for my mind's eye.
In exchange for 70 centavos
I get a transfer good for 3 hours and a subterranean treasure hunt.
Malachite Mediterranean themed murals.
Iridescent earth-colored Edenic scenes of pastoral bliss.
Lapis-blue arabesques.
No graffiti here, no need.
That they save for government buildings
-kill the monkey.
