I think the good news for the speaker is that whatever it is that is killing him, it can only kill him once.
The speaker has nothing to worry about in that regard. I like the monitone dull sound of the poem though, it's detached.
I don't think of rail road crossings as alarms. Signal bells might maybe. Also the signals of mental illness. I'm assuming "it" is a ill mind. Or is the speaker not mentally ill? If the speaker not mentally ill why focus so much on random things as a means to hide truth?
