Train travel is a recent concept for me
Travelling by bus to catch a train!
They took our trains away long ago
Before I was even born
The beginning of reducing the conditions
That improve standards of living
Divided by religion and now by modes of transport
The west is dark and wild, forgotten it seems
Networks removed and grown over
Remembered in pensioners conversations
As the hospitals are removed, school closures follow
Until we are left in a blank spot on the map
Infrastructure following sectarian lines
Splitting the country in two
with geography and ideology
This was all that came to me following the prompt that mentioned trains. So I didn’t even try the prompt forms mentioned today.
