Life on the GO (Tanka Sequence)

walking
towards the opened door
I’m pushed by GO riders
sadness comes
and helps shut me in

a maple leaf
drifts through the window
and lands on me
I, too, have wandered
from my natural path

getting off the train
I drag myself to the place
I live
no one for company
traffic sounds cheer me along
