A Room of My Own: Midnight Train Tanka

alone I wait
for the midnight train ...
      returning home
                               <--> no one

      scrawled on the wall

  1. Below is one of my train poems that could be read as a prequel to the tanka above:

    faraway whistle
    of the night train ...
    mother's lullaby
