Rant (04/21/2008)

i'm at an
inexplicable
irresistible
inaccessible
conflicting
uncoordinated
yet related
trains of thought
leaving at the same hour
on parallel directions
full speed,
eyes closed,
blood pumping,
hold my breath 'til
the sound of the work whistle
is released

my logic waits
at my next stop
and this train has no other driver

chug-a-chug-a-chug-a
shot of reality
to drown out daydreams
and swallow

this
train
won't
stop
