(VII)

Back from holiday
Your bag won’t stay on the rack
Wanting to go back. 

(VIII)

The wind pushes you
Down the platform like it 
Wants you off quickly.

(IX)

Exiting August
At your stop train
Overfull doesn’t stop.

(X)

Maybe see you later?
Her question calls out to him
Tepid in her guilt. 

(XI)

Complicated these are
The guard answers you smiling
Opening the gate.

(XII)

Re reading your texts
You fail to see the crowd at
The back building.
