The Midnight Train

[Guest guest]

When you awake in the middle of the night and your

mind is empty, and all is dark, and all is silent, and

the silence and the darkness seems to spill over the

world and never end, do not stir from that. Stay on

board, that's the midnight train. It has come to take

you home, it's home. If you stay on board for a few

seconds, if you recognize it for what it is. Then

that's it. There is nothing else.You are the midnight

train,and the train is all there is. Even when you

feel you are not on board, you are it.

 

The darkness vanish, the world appears in resplendent

light, but that is no other than the midnight train.

The silence vanish and you hear the rattling of

wheels,your thoughts are chanting their hypnotic tune, that

is also the midnight train. The whistle blows, you feel

it as pain, but that is nothing but the train. The

train labors belching smoke, you see it as ignorance,

but fret not, it's nothing but the engine doing it's

job.

 

The tunnel of death might loom ahead, but fear not,

under, or above the train will never stop.

 

All aboard!
