Canción en Agave Azul
I dance to Texas
with enormous belly,
suck torrents of Shiner Bock,
lick the lips of agave plants,
drink fresh aromas from morning skies,
bear witness to blushing sunsets
between beautiful yucca screams,
devouring the landscape like a fever-starved star,
my laughter and sorrow piercing haunted memories,
following familiar evenings and flickering sun
like her windswept miles, eternal.

Title: Fatally Fallen
Comments: There is something that is just so utterly sad about fallen train stations. I believe this abandoned one in Sanderson has been torn down now.
