Step underground into a world of steel, strangers, and fleeting moments.
Haiku: An MTA Journey pairs 42 original haikus with gritty, high-contrast photography of the New York City subway. Each image is square-cropped, intimate, and unapologetically urban — from the quiet poetry of a lone commuter to the kinetic blur of a departing train.

Written with a sharp IYKYK sensibility, these haikus capture the humor, chaos, and strange beauty that only subway riders know. Whether you’re a New Yorker, a nostalgic visitor, or someone who’s never swiped a MetroCard, this collection invites you to pause, look closer, and see the city in 17 syllables.

Perfect for gift-giving, coffee tables, or anyone who believes public transit is more than just a way to get from point A to point B — it’s a story unfolding every ride.
