Sometimes

Amtrak trains

Make you want to strangle someone

I'd be happy with the conductor

But I'm not too picky at this point

Constant rocking, rolling, jerking

Makes you clench your teeth

And you end up with a headache

Then, all of a sudden-

The electricity turns off, the train

Stops

Great.

Two and a half hour wait, they told us later

Then, at two a.m

People start talking

About bars, of all things

(Loudly, I might add)

Specifically,

Irish bars

I don't get it

I really don't

Then the sleeping

Or should I say,

Lack of?
