buffalo head cloud rawhide drums saline rollers at tantalus cross ominous light forms a short mile away head lice and peckers tap the metal track shovel train pings the night quiet moonlight shines in geometric form arches and skiddles and skirting reflections (a vast connection of grand design) 7 horns at the passing (oh that cold metal joy!) stirring the blades and ground cover you better not turn old friend just nod, and cut what you need it’s a bitter run on the winter line (with the finest of wheels and runners) hold tight on the pulley the canyon wires are clipping there’s a gateway to the copper town *with a key held by coveted few* you can spot the riders in their box cars watching closely at the chunnel’s dark turn we’d walk the lines often (and put an ear to the ground) the mine town still and barren hidden treasures and pocket ******* settled deep in a tranquil, stolid place
