Fragments of 
ships, planes, and
trains talk in 
scratchy voices. The rough here and 
there erode
their respect.

Heads home filled with people
Blacks, Hasids and others

always in back
buses, trains, movie houses--all
but please spend your money here

Ice stiffened limbs
Reaching out
No saviors about

Snow flakes in the wind
I reached and reached and reached
Towards deaths cold hands

A passionate woman complains
That men are a bit shy of brains
They have but one goal
Yet can't hit the hole
Unless guided in just like trains . . . .

Which go off the rails just like trains
But why should they care?

So he plays with space rockets, not trains
And now he can tweet

The Star Has Fallen

Unexpectedly somewhere the star has fallen,
Having dropped a thin ray of hope.
And the trains have rushed along the world 
To shout about great grief, about unearthly love.

trains, planes, and automobiles
trapped and flash-frozen emplace 

Christmas lights still bright
If one ventured through the night
ghost carolers in the mews
