trains

I like train journeys. The world runs through rectangular window frames like a documentary with cleverly crafted shots. Here- a weather beaten half torn hoarding- an old woman. There- the clothes fluttering on a clothesline like prayer flags. Electricity towers like Dussera effigies awaiting their doom, the trees like monks- their heads bent in devotion, the buildings sitting still like patients in a hospital's waiting area.
