Train Wreck

Rocky Lagou

The distant light approaches. subtle.
Hazy hues hinting at. trouble.
The darkness encroaching upon. [redacted].
The faintness of love. struggle.
 
Onlooker.
 
Oncoming - Shuttle.
 
Onlooker.
 
Incoming - Rubble.

      Good write R. Aww, why they say to me (do they? lol): 'You're an accident waiting to happen'.

    • sorenbarrett

      A good metaphor and the formate of the poem aided in the presentation of an oncoming train. Nicely done

      • Rocky Lagou

        Thx sm, I'm glad you enjoyed the format as well, it was formatted intentionally

        Yes, it’s sad to be unable to do anything, like shattering glass all in slow motion! Hey Rocky! Happy New Year! It’s been so long… 🙏🏻🕊👍🏻

        • Rocky Lagou

          Hi there! Glass shattering in slow motion is an apt comparison. I'm glad you liked the poem. Hoping this new year brings you much joy and peace
