The trains, they go straight ahead,
Engineers paying little attention to
What’s ahead.
It’s all the same
Run after run, day after day.
The cars, they go wherever,
Drivers paying little attention to
What’s ahead.
It’s all the same
Drive after drive, day after day.
Irresistible paths, the come together
The cosmos paying little attention to
The routine.
It is the fate that rules
Second after second, situation after situation.
Trains don’t stop, stay off the tracks
Cars drive only as well as the driver
See ahead
Denying the collisions
Death after death, mourning after each.
Eve gets the blame,
But we all know Adam
Would have screwed up too
We all do.
Thanks, Mia. That’s high praise for sure.
I really enjoyed this, especially the last stanza. Terrific! ~ Mia
