SQUASH

Sitting on the tracks

Waiting for the click clack

Ain’t no going back

Caught up in the train’s track

Lay-ed out on the rocks

Waiting for the choo choo

And I aint comin’ back

Once the train has gone through

Now the train is coming

Looking at my clock

Right on time is coming

Click clack squashhhhhhhhh

there is a sadness here but also an understated desire to choose our own destiny.. perhaps I will use a child's rhyme when it is my turn..

[Rene Velez]

the images are surreal and the tale that much sadder, well penned..

[Andrea]

Very simple but packs a punch, no need for a lot of emotion to be expressed here because I think the line 'ain't no going back' sums it all up and with understatement belies the simplicity of sitting on the tracks and waiting for the end.

[Dahlia Phoenix]

Oh my. This is sad. I would never even think of something like that. This is a good poem because the childish noises you added make it even sadder knowing what happened.

[Coyote Poetry]

Nice flow of words and a sad ending. You are on a flow for writing tonight. A excellent poem.

I will be sure to never visit train tracks and wait for the squash... Interesting write and I have to wonder why?
