Poems
Jun 2016
Treading water
Northern line,
Archway to the city
hope
I get there on time
for the Central line
heading East
leastways
that what it says
on the destination
marker,
most days
it's right, but
I take nothing for granted.
Sunday was my day to fly day
now it's something to try
and get by day
It's **** getting old
feels like I'm fading away
nobody sees me
my destination board
reads
out of service.
Just a blip on the radar
I'm sweeping the dial
finding the files.
Next time
no northern or central to
drive me
fukin' mental
no line next time at all.
