Benches in Trains

I took the A train to 14th Street, and transferred to the L. My destination was Union Square but instead I stopped at my past. I saw my Mom in Tennessee, and my Dad in the Philippines. I witnessed my Mom walk to school and my Dad not go. I sat with Michelle as she opened presents on Christmas day and I sat with myself writing in a room. Like I'm writing on a train, ready to get off on the next stop.

Pay your fare and get on.

While I sit on the train, I close my eyes and see myself in LA.

LA hat. Flannel. Dickies. Chucks. Kush.

Wow. Flashback.

I am on the Life Train that never stops. How will I get off.

I won't.....................
