Sense Sonnet - Chiller

 A Shaker Shaken

Living in a building next to

Some railroad tracks, I did become

Used to the sounds the trains would do,

And the building would vibrate some.

One day I noticed a stopped train

Right outside of my window there.

I felt vibrations on the gain

Of the building and was aware

Something real weird was going on.

How could the non-moving train be

Causing shake phenomenon?

For a moment it puzzled me.

Then I did see the stopped train shake,

And realized 'twas an earthquake.
