The Demon Engineer

He was essentially clueless. There was little reason in his rhyme. She was a benevolent dictator, but the trains didn't run on time. He met her in a station between anxiety attacks. It would not be long before the train went off the tracks. She grew up in East Virginia. Her father was Casey Jones. He should have seen it coming - broken heads and broken bones. So, my friends, who still roam the earth, Ditch the rail and have no fear. Be safe, and you won't see her, the demon lady engineer.

It's a terrific story that brings back memory of the poem Casey Jones. You hit a home run with this one.
