What Might Have Been




down at the port
wish I’d sailed on the sea

worked on a big ship

big life, big adventure, big stories 

big waves, big rocks, lonely lighthouse 

I’m at the bottom of the sea

with other bottom feeders

scraping bottom 


  • at the bottom of a bottomless pit


watching a train yard 

it makes me wonder; 

what if I’d worked on a train? 

might have been interesting

brakeman brake

wave your lantern 

out the train, down the stairs 

drown my always present cares 

trackside bar 

old boxcar
