Chicago L Train Station Platform Before Dawn with Commuter Waiting

by Carolyn Bennett

The dim blue light of pre-dawn Chicago falls through the high windows of an elevated L train station, casting long shadows across the tiled platform. A lone commuter in a heavy wool coat stands near the yellow safety line, checking a wristwatch as the distant rumble of an approaching train vibrates through the concrete floor. Graffiti tags in faded red and blue cover the lower sections of the walls, evidence of urban decay. A metal trash can sits near the pillar, slightly dented. The air is crisp and cold, visible as faint breath in the low light. The quiet, solitary routine of early morning transit in the city, with the steel tracks gleaming under the sparse station lighting.
