I count the
vertebrae
like a marrow
railway
down the
desert of your back
subways of
nerves
sending my
fingertips
to grand central
as they read
their romance
novels
on
the train
in the dark.

I've been to grand central once in my life and you actually captured the entire thing quite well. Living in Minnesota, trains aren't really used besides the light rail, which doesn't really count. Still, sorry for my tangent. This is awesome, very deserving of the gold trophy.
Warmest,
