Late evening scene aboard a vintage subway car beneath a funky fresh City, facing the stainless steel wall with an inset poster; the poster has a colourful motif and displays a poem title Origin Story by Jenny Xie; it reads: "I was profligate like a floodlight to the sun. Hoarded saccharine and toothmarks, wanted only the thickest rhymes, two of each. Full I was of promises I never intended to keep: puckered laughter, lines to feast. I let everyone who entered my life enter through me. Demanded nonsense love and bodies that would ring. Not to mention higher kilowatts of creeping joy, more red in everything—"; the reflection of the nineteen-seventies-era bright orange seating reflects on the shiny, stainless steel wall; near the top of the wall is a manufacturer's nomenclature plate that reads "Alsthom" - whatever that is.
