Traintracks to Baltimore
April 15, 2024
On cold summer days
when the Baltimore tramlines
were frosted closed
we would sit on the tracks
and pretend we were skating on ice
waiting for the zamboni to come,
scraping the traces of our existence
off of the metal runways.
Now we live in hot winter seasons,
and you stand on concrete platforms,
waiting for the HH-P8 train.

"Persephone Quine is a 15-year-old Author and aspiring poet from the UK, though she wakes up every day to the sunny sky of California. You'll find her work published in school newspapers, in an international collection, and receiving local awards. When she isn't inking some sort of phrase into existence, she's advocating for beginner programs in her school's art programs. Otherwise, you can find her listening to Chase Petra, baking her heart out, or trying in vain to figure out what prose syntax is."
