People trying to make it to the (Staten Island) ferry before the doors close only to find they didn’t make it…
Running
Breathless
Panting
Heels thumping against the ground
Heavy bags hitting against their legs
They run as if life depends on it
Only to have the door
Slammed in their face
They won’t get home on time
But at least they got their exercise
