The Dancing man on the Subway

The man that danced on the subway was a curious sight.

The sway of the carriage moved his hips while everyone else was stationary.

His face was full of glee and he looked to everyone to share this joy he had found in his music and the day.

But people's faces were lit up not by his happiness but buy their phones.

And so, the man still danced, no care in the world, moving from pole to pole like swinging through the concrete jungle where he lived; it indeed was a curious sight.
