Put on my old hobo coat and grabbed my pack
filled with beer and wine
Left the mill site in Radium at 12:30
The snow was deeper on that end
as I tried to get a rhythm walking
skipping every second rail tie
never got it right
so I traipsed on out of sync
Met four trains in all
three going South
and one Northbound
3:30 made it to the steel bridge
where cold industrial steel grips me
pulling at my alcoholic tendencies

I hear Waits say in an interview..." Id rather have a bottle in front of me, than a frontal lebodamy"...makes perfect sense to me. jd
