trains
May 23, 2008
the way the sun was striking the,
flashing metal glints of
the
trains
there was a blinding
epiphany
of light and sound
and the tracks were great, steel veins;
how they,
curve,
and twist elegantly:
not unlike that of a flowering vine,
or the thin, naked spine
of the radiant woman who stole the thunder
from the mid-august storms,
the,
glowing dusky warm, warm, warm skies-
skies that hover,
hover around the station,
mixing with engine ssssssteam.
