The Boy In the Old Truck
there’s a boy in the old rusty truck
standing by the railway station
he’s sitting in the shabby cabin
sitting in the air draught
for days and months and years every day
watching the busy crosswalk
and crowds of thousand varying faces
trying to remember each one of them
imagining their pains and pleasures
building a structure of their abstract characters
through his cautious eyes of melancholy
and now I joined him,
but suddenly – he leaves
and I can’t take my eyes off the scene
in a short distance in front of the vehicle
there’s a boy in the old rusty truck
