Steam Locomotive
I skipped my way through the streets of London towards the train station. Giddily passing by many chaps dressed in fedora hats, and London Fog trench coats; all with their eyes glued to the daily paper. The headline sprawled “Leading clergymen and political figures hold a public meeting in the United Kingdom to register outrage over Nazi Germany’s persecution of Jews”. I admit, it did feel a bit wrong being as frivolous as I was in these horrific times, but I had just finished guest starring on ‘The Castaway’ radio show. It was exuberating to be a part of something that could bring humor and cheer into society in lieu of all the doom and gloom that centered around the war. I have a strong belief that entertainment is essential for morale. I waved at each passing automobile with a grin stuck to my face, while my shiny leather oxfords carried me through the bustling city. I arrived at the entrance of the railway depot right on time and strutted to the ticket booth.
