Rail thrum: the practice is rhythmic, numbing and childish. It is something that I have done while crossing bridges for as long as I can remember. This bad habit always leaves my fingers covered with soot that collects from car exhaust; here, I touch the bridge and all the people who have crossed the bridge. The rubbing makes a grimy love stain.
