London subway metro train station connection, busy off-peak City rush, escalator packed, another northern crush. Ticket barrier blockade, pass through tomorrow not today. Police at the exits, a black sea of law abiding abyss, protectors of the peace. Another announcement over the crowd, “Platform 2 is closed for the storm cloud to be cleared”. Body parts have spread over carriage doors, torn from their sockets, slipping pictures from necklace lockets.

LONDON UNDERGROUND SUICIDE
London subway metro train station connection, busy off-peak City rush, escalator packed, another northern crush. Ticket barrier blockade, pass through tomorrow not today. Police at the exits, a black sea of law abiding abyss, protectors of the peace. Another announcement over the crowd, “Platform 2 is closed for the storm cloud to be cleared”. Body parts have spread over carriage doors, torn from their sockets, slipping pictures from necklace lockets.
