“In Transit” - Matthew Gustafson
Choices
“In Transit” - Matthew Gustafson
A car, elevated, gold-lit
like some medieval icon,
its warmth contained;
a car, constrained,
another in front, a third behind,
comfort, going nowhere.
Person, dog, pedestrians
dark against the snow, free
and frozen, in the moment,
bound maybe for, maybe from
the clear crossing
between the shining rails,
it’s impossible to tell.
Which would you rather be?
From “Nature’s Playground” exhibit at the Bryan Memorial Gallery.
