going down to the train station

her wallpaper doesn't arrive.

so 

i have the day off.

the sun has moved closer to the earth

this year,

so taking

a long walk

is out of the question.

i might catch fire.

brittle as i am.

i think about the neighborhood

pool,

but there are too many kids

in there peeing.

maybe a bike ride,

maybe a trip to the grocery store

to get coffee beans.

maybe i'll go down

to the train station and watch

trains arriving

and leaving.

i used to see old men do that back

in the day.

maybe there's something

to that that i'm missing.
