March

Again.
Again, The Iron Wheels Roll Along The Rail.
The Train Rushes Through The Ebb Of Dreams.
Passengers Fall Silent
And Stare Enthralled By The Wretched And Drunken March
Lingering On The Earth.

We Pass Deserted Stations.
There Is Seldom Chance To Pick Up Anyone Else,
So No Escape From Further Loss.
Outside The Window The March Wails Its Winter Blues.

The Grey-Haired Hostess Serves Cold Tea.
She Says – Don’t Bother Me;
This Is Not Nice Nor, Is It Nice.
Cheer Up And Gamble Your Life With Your Fellows.
Outside The Window The Malicious March Recklessly Reigns On.

Bare Trees Flicker Like Images On The Screen.
Nature Struggles To Survive.
Trees Rumour That Nothing Will Change.
There Is No Right Wing Or Left Wing.
All I Can Hear Is The Cursing.
Outside The Window The March Rails Against The Heavens.

Another Day Comes.
The Passengers Awaken And Seek Help.
It Is Freezing And Damp Here And Tea Is Served Cold.
The Travellers Are Accustomed To A Higher Service
And A Higher Carat.
Outside The Window The Hateful March Howls With The Wolves.

We Haven't Stepped Off This Train For Over A Century.
Someone Could Spin A Yarn About This Journey.
All I See Are Bruised Passions And Trite.
Enough Of This Doomed March.
Enough.
