Subway Poem


Hot as hell. Black as hell. Fast as hell.
Crammed as hell. Sweating like hell. Awkward
as hell. Confusing as hell. Delayed
as hell. Uncomfortable as hell. Sexy
as hell. Is she smiling at you? Like hell.
Fat as hell. Smelling like hell. Her legs
are as long as hell. Her bust is as big as hell.
His bust is as big as hell. Braking like hell.
Piling in like hell. Looking like hell.
Reading like hell. Sleeping like hell. Kissing
like hell. Drinking like hell. Drunk as hell.
Sad as hell. Beautiful as hell. Noisy as hell. What the hell.
Hungry as hell. Tired as hell. Thirsty as hell.
Texting like hell. Laughing like hell. Quiet as hell.
Thinking like hell. Checking the time like hell.
