kilters to the hand on a rail

lost beside the meager display

ground down remains of prey

the shuffle of blind insist

a march of unraveled bliss

all aboard a near miss

no time to resist

time wanders a train

the slow motion of a stain

bends back the will

misery’s honor forever stills

a life within reach

belief lies beneath a mask

arms a pressing disguise

bangs at an irrespective demise

daydreams for impressions bloom   

cracked glass still reflects

the worlds mass on the move

turning hope in a kaleidoscope view

conflicts try a mind for limits

defend a paradox unseen  

the fury to push back mean

runs free while praying for a leash

You are a amazing writer my friend. I liked the story in the poem and the photos.

Wonderful expression as I leave upon the train within my mind as every word takes down the line.

i always like your writing and especially the way you weave words and imagery together so powerfully. this does not disappoint. great to roam free but sometimes a little self-restraint is needed. i'm on board with ticket in hand. don't want to be late for this ride. great pics as always. terrific write (stands out as one of my many favorites of yours) ... :)

Pete, this is just everyday harsh reality. The depravity of the people right next to us that we never say anything to. all alone in their own demise. I believe a day is coming when surviving in the world will have to be a team sport more coming together or the end is sooner. Sorry how depressing I am, however concerned I still mock the everyday rat race "catching a train"
Thank you for your much needed praise and review
