The train's steady click mingles
with a soothing sway
and early morning muteness
descends into daydreams.
Telephone wires rise and dip
in a dance of distance
waltzing behind backyard trees
and empty lots
turned fields of wildflowers.
A scene almost serene
suddenly skips
as silhouettes flash staccato,
thrashing like a broken film reel
severed by the passing commuter train.
Motionless people moving past
at breakneck speed
sit silent like specters
travelling back to where I've been.
