Oncoming Train
light in the distance stutters and winks
disappears.
there again. brighter.
closer.
the ground rumbles beneath my feet
vibration in perfect symphony with
the rattling disorder in my head
untethered
brightly colored balloon drifting
willy nilly taken by random winds
free
falling
apart
lovely approaching light, angel bright
blister blight, hug me tight
just right, nighty night
put out the light
sleep tight
beneath the wheels
