bristol temple meads to manchester piccadilly
when i travel
on a train
i feel the movement
as a fuzz
on the pressured parts
of my body
that sit apart
from eyes
lost in the mix
of town
and countryside
the fuzz
like a bearded coat
combs and tails me
moves on
as one with me
and when the train stops
i think on
how bold
a stationary moment
can feel
in this
last wait
before
home

This is really good, Emily. You have an great flair for words and phrasing of very original ideas. I look for more. If you don't see a comment from me on a poem, ask me about it, for I probably will have only overlooked it.
