Poetry Reflections: Subway Edition

Here's a poem I wrote on the subway. It was inspired by the modern transportation poetry they post on billboards.

Here it is:

Modern poetry seems
to me
sometimes
like a middle school dictation class
with Christopher Walken
or
William Shatner
where the kids are
instructed
to hit the enter
key
for every long
pause.
Also,
the kids hands are
sweaty.

I know, guys. I missed my calling.
