Jackie plays with his train.
\nIt goes to the end of the bridge
\nwhere the sea stops it.
\nIt clutches the track,
\nkeeping the schedule of time.
\nThe little boy doesn\u2019t care.
\nThe laws of physics
\nhave nothing to do with him
\nor myself.<\/p>\n
The train is on the Island of Sodor.
\nIt is all we know.
\nThe island grows and expands
\nlike a flower.
\nIt is a hopeless metaphysics
\nbeyond the relationships of
\nsub-atomic demons.<\/p>\n
He is a little boy daring me
\nto be immense.
\nHe is huge as a rainbow.
\nWe play trains together
\ngoing through tunnels deep in God\u2019s heart,
\nwho can\u2019t be proven
\nanymore than we can.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
