Poem title: At the train station Poet name: Brianna Cheng Poem: While waiting at the train station under the belly of a cracked sky two coyotes bounded across the tracks and wind ceased blowing and passengers looked up from their thermoses swallowing surprise as if all the world was holding their breath at the two animals darting past the other commuters and I their pink tongues wagging I know you felt it too a moment a tension I know you heard it too the song of steel and wild flesh and fur of human and nature End of poem.
