    The Commuter Rail Sonnet

    Posted by Heretic on November 16th, 2008 in Poetry

    Wake up everyday before the day dawns
    Ride like the wind just to make it on time
    Only it’s not some hellcat that I get to ride
    It is a filthy green slug trailing on slime

    For it’s a long way to where I have to be
    My private little prison where I punch in
    A diesel goliath I board to take me in
    To deliver me to the corporate machine

    It is a long, lonely ride and would be painful
    If not for two things I have to keep me cool
    The first- Led Zeppelin- on my ears to soothe
    The other, sweet woman, are thoughts of you

      Well, no, mostly because “bhangeri” is an ideal… like “utopia” or “shangri-la” or “perpetual motion”.

      Hmm..so bhangeri’s perpetual motion along with you till the eternity.
      “I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality”.i think MLK said so, :grin:
      anyway,following same routine each day is surely boring, unless you have LedZep to soothe your ears.
      All of my Love,All of my Love,All of my Love to you :grin:

      i liked the way you put ‘diesel goliath’. The content is typical.You have mirrored yourself through this poem.I guess you are a working class hero.A ‘cool’ one.
      My personal opinion about writers is that a wrtiter needs to describe a scenario and discover himself there.I guess you described yourself at first and then discovered a scenario.anyways your symbolisms were mindblowing.
      You can comment my poem ‘where are we’ in the humour section.

      hello there are you “wtf” what is that.My poem “Where are we” was mistakenly put in the humour section.This is a philosophical one why would I put it into humour section.I have read your new poem.It is good.I will read it again to get it fully.
