The Subway Surprise:

Another day, another unfamiliar terrain
Trains swooshing by the subway
Graffiti walls screaming in pain
My story in this can of spray
Releasing demons from its cage
SSSSSSH, miss my mama’s face
Train stops, sardines in a can
STAMPEDE! Animals scatter
Filthy looks, almost get splattered
The last lady looked familiar
Came my way to see my display
Eyes widened, lips move
silence
Is that? Are you my…
Art imitating life
Life imitating art
Mama?!
