Tube Train – Poem

Swoosh, rattle,

click, clack, dash! –

a train rushes into a dark cavern

swerving and snaking its way

through dust and grime.

Pit-like are the tunnels

a dark labyrinth –

London’s winding underworld.

*

Passengers squelch and crush,

carriages clatter and hiss

along metallic tracks.

People are belched

from the belly of the train

and scuttle to their everdayness! –

a train roars off into

the foggy labyrinth.

*********

Thanks for reading!
