Riding the Rails
Riding the Rails
When we reflect
On our life
We might resemble
A train passenger
Riding and attending to
Clocks and destinations..
The rails on our train
Reveal and restrict and
Guide beliefs in the
Severed nature of things..
As a passenger we are
Rattled by a whistle
High notes we exalt
Low notes we blanket..
Until the day
We step off the train
Into the station
With its permanence
Recognizing arrival
Finding our Home...
