I rest my head on the window and watch
overhead electrical wires dance.
My overpacked bag nestles between my ankles
while the window's vibrations massage my scalp
into a tranquil numbness.
For a moment, my thoughts exist in an uncommon serenity
in which they follow only the oscillating dance of the wires above
Merge and then separate
Merge…separate
I find calm
seeing the world
as a singular continuous blur
passing me by.
It makes more sense
than any destination.
And the view from this train window defines life
beautifully, in a manner ever so concise.
“A constant journey between destinations with imprecise vision in between”
