thinking of home

how can you not
love a train.
it's the same as it
was a hundred
years ago.
the romance of who's
on board,
who was left behind.
little has changed.
the whistle.
the tracks.
the cinder between
the rails.
the engineer pressing
forward, thinking
of home,
see how it glides along
so easily
on ribbons
of cold steel.
