Train Wreck
Collision of locomotives and train.


Train Wreck

Like Robin Hood and Little John,
they grapple for command of the track,
heads butting and flanks shoving,
they arch in heaving stalemate,
both immovable objects
and irresistible force
meeting in thwarted ambition,
and duelling to defeat.
