Railway Blues by Talile Ali
i use to hop trains
when drivers passed me by
it was just a way
of moving
from here to there to nowhere else
i'd travel on the rails
seeing the country rollin by
seeing the people livin their lives
seeing the world as it would collide
into the stars way past midnite
then break into a morning light
feeling the rhythym of the tracks
as it percussed against my back
as it it would click inside my mind
i those moments i was devine
from a moment here and there
was it an existence and a year
life is beautiful and it's queer
