Ol' Number 13

By JEG325

half a mile from Hell’s gate
lies rusted old train tracks
those who take the journey
never seem to come back…

if you see number thirteen
rolling with ghostly silence
lock all your doors quickly
before living becomes past

tense

thru darkened forest trees
to its mysterious final stop
your last ticket is punched
time derailed off the clock

oh God I see bright lights
and its orange misty haze
there’s no place to run to

as on 1 and 3

fearful eyes

gaze
