Merlynda Robinson Poet Free verse

The Last Stop

Yes - I’ve been there -
Where the shades of trains pummel
Silk, silvery tracks - whispering:
“Forward and Back - Forward and Back”. 

And - 

There were times I saw a traveller there, too
Praying - with a platform ticket in his palm
Wishing he could live the lie -

Or - 

Have the engine take him -
Now -
To the Last Stop, on the Line.
