About This Poem
Hell Bound Train
I am the engineer on a hell bound train
and I finally know it.
Curiosity drives me on to see how
destiny will end it.
Ignored good advice going into the station
but was much too proud to accept it.
Paid full price for the ticket and knew
right then that I had blown it.
Saw the passengers get off, one by one,
some invited me home, no time for it.
Watched the scenery turn to badlands,
good hint, but I said, "screw it!.
Porters and crew got off somewhere
and I was too engrossed to spot it.
I am the engineer on a hell bound train
and I always knew it.
Curiosity drives me on to see how
destiny will end it.
