Railroad Runaway

shadows help and shoes
that fit a road map,
seldom used, flops
danger to hot thoughts.

escaping seems reason-
able but plans flicker,
disappear, and sex seems
too obvious.

taking the A-train but in a
backseat far from speed,
the urge to fly gives way
to the practical.
stoke muffins in pockets,
bring yogurt cups cold
from refrigeration, and climb
down from the tracks.

instead follow the moon,
and, while it blooms,
touch fingers to sunflowers,
wishing for love.
