Heil Rail

Effectively effective,
The lesser of evils,
My friend I shall meet you this week
(And next).

You are there for my journey,
Beginning, middle and end,
Yet not the prelude
Nor finale.

A motley collection,
Old, young, cold, warm.
I prefer the company of the old
And cold.

Complaints abound
Of you and your minders.
I never really understood,
You’ve been nice to me.

Yet my friends always turn,
You are no different.
A bad day came,
Then another.

Jokingly slow
I cursed your joy
At my frustration
My boredom.

The next day you were sick,
Cancelled our appointments
When I was already waiting
For you.

Changing and changing,
It made no difference.
I ran and ran,
Though I never ran for you before.

Utterly spent
You have destroyed my faith.
Yet I love you still
As I do all.

This is disturbingly sad.
You've effectively reached your hand into my chest and ripped my heart out...
Ouch.
But congratulations nonethless...
You've mastered word here = ].

I thought it was GRAND.

It made me laugh though.

Alcohol must have deadened the ripping heart out feeling....

Maybe laughter was an inappropriate response....
