Freight Train Into Fog - Missoula, Montana

"....Well every time I fell behind, I could not get ahead.
I wish someone would pull the lever and give me a little sand.
 
And every time I slip behind, even further back,
I wish some switch man would come out of the fog and change my track..."
 
- From "Freight Train" by Alan Jackson

Into the Fog - Missoula, Montana

"...The reveries of ruins asked: “Will no  

one come?” The skeletons of trees inquired:  

“And who are you, forever on the go?”..."

- From 'In the Fog' by Giovanni Pascoli, as translated by Geoffrey Brock
