Passing Train

while sitting in class
thinking about the next assignment
I heard the train go by
whistle screaming a warning
'Get off the tracks!'
and the deep bass 'thump'
of the wheels hitting the cross ties
i could just picture it going by
black and yellow with a big nose
running as for dear life
preceding miles of boxcars
speeding by, dragged along by the catches
like a child holding on to its mother
full of cargo, covered in graffiti
in all colors and shapes
i hope they're happy about the mark they left

Hey, that was just brilliant. I just love this poem.
The feeling of the over-all write was just inspiring. I like it when reading inspires poets, seeing or hearing something.
This was a wonderful, thanks for posting and sharing this fine poetic work.
