What block this is I do not know.
The storefront windows stare and glow.
The plows will have a job to clear
The street when it fills up with snow.
The Indian cabbie thinks it queer
To keep the meter running here
Between Park Avenue and Lex
The dirtiest evening of the year.
A weary dispatcher directs
By radio where he must go next.
The only other sound’s the swash
Of windshield wipers badly flexed.
For once, things look demure not brash.
But I need an ATM with cash
Before I can go home and crash,
Before I can go home and crash.
Robert Frost, I think.
