Model Railroad Town
A.Brown 2014
Don’t you want to live in a model railroad town?
Waving at the train as it circles around
Time has stopped on the hands of the station clock
And the only thing that’s moving is the train
Somebody brought it home from the church rummage sale
Took it down the basement connected all the rails
Painted white clouds on a bright blue sky
And the sun shines like a 60 watt light
From the old stone church to the library
From the lumberyard to the candy store
The world is as big as the ping-pong table
And the train only ever takes me back to my own front door
