Clickety Clack

Found in the book 'The Temple of Silence'

Clickety Clack explores the feeling of being caught in life's repetitive patterns, symbolized by a girl traveling on a train with no space between its cars. The rhythmic "clickety clack" of the train echoes the mind's endless loops of thoughts and stories. The poem hints at the possibility of freedom through "uncoupling" from these narratives, allowing for a return to peace, but for now, the journey continues.

Back to List

Once upon a now there was a girl
stuck in the how, lost in the world,
who traveled back and forth
on a track with no space between the cars

An uncoupling of the story
would bring a return to peaceful glory

But for now…
