waiting on a train

you find
yourself on the platform
waiting
for a train
with other people.
strangers.
a line
of plump grey
pigeons
sit on the wire,
clucking
gently in the early
morning hours.
it might rain.
the sky
is a flat gun
metal grey.
the rails
gleam in no light.
they come
they go.
you do the same.
