Into the Fog and Night
Trains full of the dead
Travel into the night and the fog,
Travel into the night and the forgetting
Into cities of dark passions,
Cities of dark smoke and oven tombs.
Trains full of the dead
Have eyes that peek through their slits,
Eyes without faces that peek through the cracks.
Trains full of the dead
Have fingers bleeding under cracked fingernails
That struggle to escape,
Struggle to crack open death
Like a dove in an eggshell.
Into the fog and night,
Hunger without respite,
Hunger and crowded fires
Consume, consume, consume...
Trains full of the living.
