The Other Window |
He took his seat on the foreign train |
He thought it pleasant to travel again |
Mindful of the journey’s end |
He read again the letter from his friend |
Time passed as it often does |
The seat was hard, the carriage fetid |
He was dressed for summer, but still he sweated |
It was better than being home |
Feeling the cold, and living alone |
Time passed slowly |
Around him people spoke in French |
Despite schooldays it made no sense |
Occasional stares caught his eye |
He was tempted to smile, but |
Being shy, time passed |
When he looked through the window |
For the thousandth time |
He saw a black horse fighting for its life |
In a barbed wire fence |
Fatally tangled |
The more it struggled |
The more it strangled |
Time sped up |
He turned away |
What could he do? |
The other window had a nicer view |
Time passed painfully |
Time passed painfully |
Time passed painfully |
