Train, Train

The room is dark as it passes close outside.
The clacking of its wheels beating like a frightened heart.
Its cry the moan of some wounded creature.
In its wake the windows rattle like old dead bones.
The foundation of the house seems to shiver at its passing.
Reason rushes in like a flood, it was only a train
made of cars, and wheels and rails,
bringing life for the body and breath for the imagination.
