Train Overnight

I loaded the variables
Like masterpieces from under a germ-led advance
I saw your compass on a sea of frayed cable
And aspects of vision afloat in a glanceAnd outside the train overnight
Floodlights on inexorable sightsYou loaded the variables
Like acquisitions from under the noses entranced
You heard some trumpets you thought were turntables
And inklings to listen dispersed in a glanceOutside the train overnight
Contrite the whistle wails goodnight
Apologizing like an ol' dictator mightOf course were now traveling by plane
If its not a Canada of a pain
Well entertain the idea of trainOutside the train overnight
Bloodlines, wheel-burnished in moonlight
A great candescent white skeleton of flight
