Train ride to the city

Jordan Kaye


Hope the summer season suits those who could be suited. Any feedback on this one is welcomed.



I was told by the conductor
that I had purchased a peak ticket
for an off-peak train ride,
and when we had bid each
our post-rush farewell,
I slipped into the many footed
transient oblivion of commutopia.
How was I supposed to know
about Armani Asphyxiation,
or a myriad of killer couture
clad puppets whose masters
are rendered muscleless,
incapable of enacting movement-
Particle to particle, pulsing,
panging, collision, which I guess
only I care about.
