Montauk Train # 7

An hour after the Dawn
An eastbound diesel train
The 8:18 to Montauk
Top speed
60 mph
Fifteen minutes
Out of Jamaica___

Sun climbs the sky
Approaching Babylon


A swimming pool
Empty
Until
A winter blizzard buries Long Island___

And the snow melts
Fills the pool
To the brim___

Two months
Ahead
Of today
A White Christmas
Wintah 2024___
