The scenery outside my window
is passing by too fast, and
I’m facing backwards, waves
of nausea disrupting the view

try to discern its origin, realize

I am clam –
emotions shuttered

Not that silence is calm –
oppressed energy a danger –
even shells can burst

Question is where
shrapnel will strike
when inevitable happens
