Parallel lines like train tracks
Will never meet
Yet, we met at a junction.
You pressed the lights and I, impatient
Went to go. I saw a break and made to run.
You held me back.
A transversal occurs
When parallel lines are crossed
By another,
Or so I was told at school.
But, like you, it never held me.
A third line can never join
Two parallels. It can only cut
The space between.
