Is this a poem about absolutely nothing at all?!
Question: Is this a poem about absolutely nothing at all!?
Always, the sound of a train
brings the wet blinking misty flash
of memory and it roars roars
roars on through without
picking up the pieces of a busted
life and laughter comes next
to bargain
without
belief!. Riding rails
seems sandy and bright
until life
swallows you
whole and asks
for a leather sack to carry
the burden but skins are scarce and souls
are overpriced and blurry
and seeing the burning tree
is better than
dying in a
dream!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

It is about the "human condition"!. Life, the hardships that come with it and the hope that pulls us through it!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
if it is esoterically written it only means something to the person who wrote it!. I am not referring to your poem; only to your question!.oh, just reread the question and I thought you had asked "is there a poem about absolutely nothing at all!?" instead of "is this a poem about absolutely nothing at all!?" cos they don't show us the poem until we're done writing the answer!. well, atleast I they didn't!. you know, I was referring to esoterical writers!.as far as the poem goes now that I've read it; I don't know if I understand the burning tree part unless you're just talking about a campfire near the rails!.Or glowing tree cos the train lights are shining on the tree!? yeah, murphy's law number one: if you see the light at the end of the tunnel; it could be the headlites of a train coming right at you!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
