Silver and Railroad Planks


Silver

Railroad planks

History humming in the distance

Laughter cascading through the air

Brave fools and silver

History growling a little bit closer

Scared fools run back

A hilltop perch is a false safety

History is coming

History is roaring

History is screaming by

Silver is crushed by iron brutality

History rushes on leaving silver carcasses behing

Laughing fools rush forth once more and reclaim their desimation

On the railroad planks

Crushed silver

Railroad planks

Silver
