A warning to anyone still in command

last_poppies-806867

They flutter behind you, your possible pasts
    some bright eyed and crazy, some frightened and lost
A warning to anyone still in command
    of their possible future to take care
In derelict sidings the poppies entwine
    with cattle trucks lying in wait for the next time
