On a range five hundred files. A Thousand. Reaching
From dawn to sunset.”

“Deep with the first dead lies London’s daughter,
Robed in the long friends,
The grains beyond age, the dark veins of her mother,
Secret by the unmourning water
Of the riding Thames.
After the first death, there is no other.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

“Commuter—one who spends his life
In riding to and from his wife;
A man who shaves and takes a train,
And then rides back to shave again.”
—E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
