POETRY
Back to PoemsRide of the Unreliable Narrator
it was on a train, or maybe a bus—
something loud and swaying—
i saw her, writing myths
in the window frost;
damaged, fragile,
oblivious.
the two of us
disconnected,
separate, lonely;
the distance growing with
every bus stop bell, or
was it the whistle of a lonesome train?
