Plutonium Train Comin' Through Town At 3A.M.



                  probably knitting
                     nervously 
                       just now
                         back in Knoxville
Merle Haggard singing 'Are You Lonely Tonight?'
Two angioplasties younger
                      on her dusty phonograph
Roy Acuff fidgety
        silently tapping the windows of that great snowy freight
                                   soaring through Heaven

The kids have the eggs and their neon flour bombs
The bulls snorting at the signal
Faithless angels coughing in the woods

The dedicated engineer feels his furuncles fester
                                    rawly
Under his company corduroy
            shoulder epaulets
