Depression
DEPRESSION
Clang!
Night
Cold
An old time trolley
Dimly lit inside
Rocking along
On a long straight silver track
One passenger
Cars
Shops
Sidewalks
Shining wet oily street
Reflected
On a frosted window
Ghostly forms
Other dimensional
Half alive
Sickly yellow smooth (bamboo?) seats
Clang!
This constant rocking
At night speed
Urging
This old time trolley
On a long straight silver track
This yellow boat
Sailing
Going nowhere
