Dream Train
by Rachel Hoyt
We chug along, dreaming our dreams -
at least to some they're dreams it seems -
Dreams of not driving everywhere,
Dreams of a reasonable fare,
Dreams of a route from A to B
that's environmentally friendly,
Dreams of flight speeds without the height,
Dreams with not a single red light,
Dreams of feeling connected to
these pathways which can lead us through
to places we find and build dreams,
where dreams are life's supportive beams.

They say the high speed train is not a cause which should succeed.
I say it is a dream which oil kings wish to squash with greed.
