(Text incomplete)

 

Anxiously watching the train
She saw the stranger
He passed her purse
She had forgotten
On the bench at Grandin


Rest

 

Banging shoes together, fighting the cold

 

In the train's middle
is a circle that rotates
as the tracks curve
all but the most balanced
hang on tight

 

The rabbit came every morning
