Listen to poem:

Taking The Train

Roads are all clogged ~ clogged with cars there's too many too many by far streets look more like a parking lot there's no sword for this Gordian Knot I'm leaving town want to get where I'm going nothing's slowing me down leaving town want to get there on time I'm not dawdling or waiting around like a hot cup of coffee on a stone-cold morning or an ice-cold beer on a hot summer's day it's a new lease on life down the line leaving nothing behind I'm on my way I'm taking the train to my next location no car for me I won't be driving to a new destination traveling light making for the station taking the train I'm taking the train
