Train Ride

Hatred hurts the hated and demolishes the hater
Before I am brought to hate, before I am baited again
I will distance myself even if it means quitting my job of years,
and joining the Peace Corp in Kenya.

I'll take a hike and won't look back.

Down the tracks across Planet's pock marked, scared face
Imperial wisdom  laid rails, not just to facilitate commerce
but also relieve the congestion in cities
Congestion begets hostilities...

but damn if the Sowetos don't  keep popping up
