 Canadian Male

Trains


The flash of urban
machine demonstrates
             persistence.
Rubber slithering
           on absorbing iron.
Interlocking harmonized echoes
           scan in electromagnetic
                      trains.
Tracks dispersed across
               the spectrum

of nothing.

Spaces.

That is this country.

We who've been in residence here
know the
            detachment of our flag.

Walking shoes
of
walking men.

Back and forth, back and forth.

Sonar devices clamped like cancer
                     to their ears.
Listening to private noises
          in the middle of a cluster.
We were thinking alike.
Hide in trains and
acclaim
          the vacuum
          of
          performing.
