Some bathroom tiles surround this trench.
We passengers coagulate
Between the train and subway bench;
An ozone armpit strangulates
My dainty nose. I feel too faint
To stand and yet we chase a door.
Inspired by subway smells of taint
My tie constricts—I fall to fours.
My face erupts—I ride this creek
Of piss upon a log of shit—
And you demand I breathe? You reek!
Just take your CPR and split.
Just save yourselves—destroy my suit
Before a bum discovers it.
From drunk, he'll rise to business coot:
From begging bowl, to throats he'll slit.
