Waiting For A Train

A-waiting for a train.
A kind of hollow pain.
An iron wheel a shock
upon a platform made of rock.

It's harder in the rain.
A waiting for a train.
Although the time is near
the stupid train just isn't here.

It's allegorical?
It's metaphysical?
Or is it critical?
Oh no it's literal

A-waiting for a train.
A rotting in the brain.
When there are bins in sight
you know that something just isn't right.

And now the train is late.
A schedule off the plate
is falling down the drain
and I'm am stuck here with no train (in the rain).

It's allegorical?
It's metaphysical?
Or is it critical?
Or is it pitiful?
