As a child Down by the railway sidings Hidden behind We watch an ashen man with a painted ***** The silver could feed us for a week And she laughs as I cry In the face of youths first love The vibrating rail Is an ode to the loveless love
I thought of an influential writing that outlines the misfortunes of virtue and recalled a time in childhood We would play amongst freight train lines on a steel mill Every week an elderly guy would meet a ******* under a bridge and I wondered that at that time the cost of *** outweighed our poverty
