Poem: Picture From A Train
The train stops...
at CN Collins...
Two Aboriginals get on...
others cluster on the platform...
facing the train...
just a few feet
from the old white lady...
"protected" by...
thick train window glass...
From the train...
she takes a good look at them...
it's not every day
you get such a good view
of "almost wild Indians"...
from a safe place...
Soon they turn their backs
to the train...to walk away...
and her camera clicks...
The faces...would have been better...
but...then again...
to get that picture...
she would have had...
to face them.........
...............Quester.
