subway

what is a subway, does it come from ‘sub’ subterrain or subpar? The word ‘way’ is it get fuck out of my ‘way’, go that ‘way’, or it is ‘way’ to far away. So then is the MTA a subway that is ‘sub’par, and a shitty ‘way’ to get around?

What is a date…..

.......Is it a chance meeting, is it an interview, 
is it a test, do they meet my set of qualifications.

Is a date a verbal contract, you pay for this
and you will get this in return?

We go to that club/theatre/music and
perhaps we go home together?
What at the end of it all does it mean....
contract fulfilled, an experience, a moment in time,
GREAT sex, bad dinner, or just a story to share on Twitter?
