Two (presumably) parent/child pairs approach a subway from different directions: an African American father and son and a light-skinned mother and daughter. The boy reads a book while riding a skateboard; the girl has a musical instrument case strapped to her back. As the kids notice each other, he wonders: "Why am I me…and not you?" She thinks: "Why are you, you…and not me?" And so it goes, with thoughts such as, "If someone else were me,/who would they be?/Someone lighter,/older,/darker,/bolder?"
