Burdened Train
Rickety Chug,
Filled
With tried and tired minds

Wet footprints
Scattered and linking;
Spheres of thought
Overlapping;
Events of the day
Turning.
Yet all aware
Of watchful eyes.
Umbarellas drip dripping;
Cough
Sniff
Fidget.

Businessman
Pretending
To read a crumpled newspaper
Brow furrowed,
Shirt creased,
Head cramped
with endless woes.

A school boy
Head phones
blaring.
Stubborn,
Barricading
The unjust world
around him.

Restless mother
Face tinged pink,
Panicking,
Continuously hushing;
The baby won't stop
Crying.

Young woman
by the window
Watching
raindrops slowly
Trickling
with light.
Only to be ripped away,
a vicious wind screeching.

A shared refuge for
Reflection.
It Halts.

All thoughts are put away safely.

Stepping off,
Walking away,
Leaving it
Till tomorrow.
