Lizz Murphy - Poem 254: Train v.



TRAIN

v.

Trying to remove a jacket in the restricted space
reminds me of the bird preening in the fork end
of a branch trying not to fall off and the poet I met
in Belfast talking of the pull since retirement the
busyness of not being busy the lack of writing

‘It picks up the sky’ who said that
what a heavy load
must break all baggage weight limits
