52. wanted: new aggression outlet

yesterday was strange. 

there i was, having dragged myself from bed to get to work, and was about to steel myself for the daily battle known as the lrt morning rush. i reached the station turnstiles, squared my shoulders, corrected my posture, and drew out my inner porcupine complete with defensive spines. 

and what greeted me? people in LINES, being herded like SHEEP, waiting for their turn to ride. 

i was baffled. i couldn't take it. the battle instinct i had nurtured for years now rendered irrelevant and out of style. 

for a moment there, i felt likea lost girl, who had wandered the wilderness for years, rescued and brought to a civilization i no longer knew.
