Train in da Water
"In the Atlantic ocean is a railroad of human bones...."--Amiri Baraka
Train came to ocean
riding water
bout to go under
sweet da waves
train under
Passing sharks sardines
How pleasant da train
Going down slow
space for peace
Let da ocean wash us with love
love bones of Baraka's railroad
August Wilson's Gem of Ocean
City of Bones
train down in darkness
no light needed.we black
ocean same.
