tube haiku

Sick of Underground?
Need to let it out right now?
Vent with tube haiku

   


Bodies hunt for space
And armpits smell so evil
I'm going to kill
... Ready to depart
Stand clear of the closing doors
And please, mind the gap
Inconsiderate
bastards wearing sandals. Smell
of foot sweat. I faint.
Catherine


No reading matter
Always fighting the boredom
Trance me up instead
Crackwhores on the tube
Their arms show track-marks and dirt
The train rumbles home
Armpit in my face
Please take your hand off my arse:
Tube space invaders
A baby on board?
Head jiggling, parents fawning
Call "Child Services"
Too many people
And all are sweaty morons -
Tomorrow, the bus
Pumpin' drum-n-bass
MiniDisc? Shut the fuck up!
Tinnitus be mine
Special Brew is good!
So sings fan of alcohol
Please don't vom on me
Doors sliding open
The crowd won't let me get off:
"Move you silly fucks!"
Smelly fat old lush
We all get drunk off your fumes
And it's only eight
Sushi girl on tube
Eat black seaweed, rice, soy sauce
Hide your shame at it
Brits are everywhere
Awful dental plans I guess
Not enough braces
M.F.


Mind the bloody gap
Wait, I think my leg is caught
The train rolls along
Adam


Ignorant lardarse
Let me get off the tube now
Or I will kick you
Jo


Wide eyed tourist twat
It is not wise to stop quite
So damn abruptly
Jo


Underground worker
Is void of information
Has attitude though
Jo


Stand clear of the doors
Some fool who is running late
Is charging at you!
Richard


Is this the Bank train?
Don't be so fucking stupid
You are in a plane!
Richard


Don't blame the guard
He just gets paid a fortune
To make rude remarks
Richard


Beer drinkers be warned
The station you are seeking
Goes by as you sleep
Richard


Ninety years ago
London's underground service
Nearly ran on time!
Richard


What makes you think
The doorway is your domain?
I do not fear you
Jo
