Subway Poem #8

omnipresent advertising

hammered and slammed

scammed

in endless regurgitation

at each stop.

mad ave slop

for commuters

and prospective consumers

slouched over their morning coffee.

without blinking an eye.

images in a hallucinatory caffeine fantasy

fill the car

with the Broadway show,

bank

and brewski,

ad infinitum

and the ride rides on

as we ponder

if we should switch

our fabric
softeners.
