REFRAIN
As soothing as the sound
of gently falling rain
The beautiful mantra
The sweet refrain
of wheels on tracks
as the world retrains
Author's Notes/Comments:
Michael Dukakis
has been very active
in the mass transit
movement. The
bullet trains of France
and Japan no longer have
the sound of wheels
on tracks since they
ride in magnetic current
above the metal. Trains
are the most efficient
of the bus, plane, car
train set and they
cause the least road
sky or seakill per mile.
They were to a major degree destroyed
in the first part of the 20th Century by a coalition
of oil and car interests.
