He stands where tracks turn quiet now
Solanum roots remember how
Fluorescent glow feeds chlorophyll
Arabidopsis bends toward the sill
Last train sighs steel into night
Platform holds no morning light
Diner sign hums sodium warm
Taxus baccata bears the storm
Neon shelter calls him home
No more wandering need to roam
Phloem carries sugar slow
Xylem drinks the electric glow
She watches stomata open wide
Beneath the buzzing light outside
Pisum sativum climbs the tile
Photosynthesis runs on file
Last train sighs steel into night
Platform holds no morning light
Diner sign hums sodium warm
Taxus baccata bears the storm
Neon shelter calls him home
No more wandering need to roam
Phloem carries sugar slow
Xylem drinks the electric glow
Glockenspiel chimes like dew on leaf
Brushed snare whispers quiet grief
He speaks in Latin to the vine
Quercus robur feels divine
Concrete cannot stop the growth
Life persists through cracks in both
Soil builds where footsteps fade
Germination starts the trade
Neon shelter calls him home
No more wandering need to roam
Phloem carries sugar slow
Xylem drinks the electric glow
Morning comes with diesel sound
But roots stay deep in platform ground
Diner sign still flickers on
Long after commuters all are gone
Neon shelter calls us home
No more wandering need to roam
Phloem carries sugar slow
Xylem drinks the electric glow
Neon shelter calls us home
Fluorescent germination
Quiet growth in station
