Reading fiction on the train











Reading fiction on the train
Through one frame an unreachable
world skims pastwards, speed images
stasis, a plane pinned motionless
to sky, a man embalmed in smoke
poised on his doorstep, travelling
on the myth that destination
is boarded with beginnings, films
watched backwards, having read the book.
