Vulgar Folks

1st whip n' piss of spring on my subway.

Goat-stench of a man staggered up,

yanked his licorice black cock

into fluorescent view.

Passengers scramble to the other side

but I stayed close and cozy,

a curious need for depravity.

Warm waves from his spongy pink slit

splashed across the floor

lapped against the steel pole.

I considered tossing Old Faithful out,

as he was in the high-tide of mid-piss

...but that we would be rude.

Stuffing his exhaustion back into jeans

the goat-man grabbed a glob of vaseline

from his wet pockets and smeared

the yellow congeal over his face into

a shiny mask of petroleum.

he spread across his head and down his neck

I got off train and the streets were blocked off
police tape and roving cops circumambulate

an ominously isolated van in middle of road

and the words 'SWAT Team' being mentioned.

And all this after a folk song musical

that Disney-fied Woodie Guthrie and his life.

The most vulgar act of the night was the musical.
