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
Plutonium Train continued on the next page
