This station

 


Time stops

and I’m lost in that

momentary space

In-between alert

and at ease.

The thin strand between

asleep and awake, a blur

in the airways

of this fluorescent escape.

This station has become

a writing room, a cinema screen

rolling through the credits

to the film of my life,

backed by the soundtrack

of tolling bell chimes.

 

This station

is a confidant that screens

my messages to the moon.

Making sure they pour

like syrup from my lips

before I drip them onto my page

to share with you sat there

in a different place.

It’s a space where time sits patiently

and listens to my thoughts.

It’s more than a waiting room

It’s a melting pot of ideas

glowing through the gloom

of the autumn rain.

 

This station,

underneath its angry

fluorescent glare, hides a smile,

eyes that care.

I sit aware of the eyes

that look out into nowhere,

and in every stray image I consume,

a new storyline flickers over me,

like a candle blowing

in the wheezing chill breath

of a wind that circles you.
