    Aboard the Express

    Hop aboard the Express
    Coast to coast, city to city, passengers in line
    Electric locomotive, powering at speed
    Turn about the corner, tilting train along the track
    Compartments of the carriage
    Synchronized flow, signal – stop sign
    Yet a glance behind, dancing of the trees
    Horses on the moor
    A scenic tour, destination ever-near
    Of varied kinds, capacities great and small
    Lest we fall, yet with closed eyes we crawl
    Make way to the mountain, sloping steep hill
    Railway equipped, pinion wheel grip
    The fascination a journey entails
    Straddling monorail, of columns held upon
    Embrace beams above roads
    Diesel locomotives, powering gears
    Afore times we have known, use of pulling alone
    Steam locomotives, signs of the time
    Wait in line, aboard the horse-drawn carriage
    Pressure, power, steam
    Fuel for freight trains, packed with heavy loads
    Rolling wagon wheel
    Roll-on record breakers, ravishing appeal

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
