Future of Speed

Destination unknown.

The once clickity clack

Of rail transport emergence,

Now whisper-quiet.

Such speed,

Either out of a gun,

A bullet train,

Or the digital world of the internet and AI.

How quickly man’s ability progresses,

Yet how frequent is one bullied into taking

A back seat to greed and power.

How forlorn the graveyard of wagon wheels

Must feel… their slow prodding along style

Having been abandoned long ago

For the future of speed

A pace of living

We may not

Catch up

With.
