Emma Jones

My name is Emma Jones. I am 37 years of age and I live with my Partner and his daughter. My hobbies include reading, painting and of course writing, I am looking for some feedback in the hope that my writing will improve as a result and also to gain a bit of confidence.

Trains Go By by Emma Jones


Dogs bark in the night
straining to be unleashed.

Lights dance across a barbed wire fence
casting shadows in its wake.

Bones poke through crepe like skin
hollowed eyes stare but do not see.

Bodies racked with pain
lay entwined on slats of wood.

People pick through rotten flesh
to rip the gold from rancid teeth.

Citizens turn their eyes away
and pretend not to see the trains go by.
