The Love Sonnets of a Car Conductor is a collection of sonnets written by the American author and journalist, Wallace Irwin. The book features 50 sonnets that are centered around the theme of love and are written in the traditional form of a sonnet. The sonnets are narrated by a car conductor who is in love with a young woman named Phyllis. The conductor's love for Phyllis is the main focus of the sonnets, and the poems explore the different aspects of love, including passion, devotion, and heartbreak. The poems are written in a lyrical style and are filled with vivid imagery and metaphors. The language is simple yet elegant, and the poems are easy to read and understand. Overall, The Love Sonnets of a Car Conductor is a beautiful collection of poems that explores the complexities of love through the eyes of a narrator who is deeply in love. It is a must-read for anyone who appreciates poetry and is looking for a book that will touch their heart and soul.My Trolley hikes to Harlem p.d.q., And picks up pikers all along the beat. At six o'clock the aisles are full of feet, The straps with fingers, and the entire zoo Boils on the platform with a mad huroo Reckless as Bronx mosquitoes after meat. The widow stands, the fat man gets the seat And Satan smiles like Foxy M.
