Poetry Thursday

 

Welcome to a new post  inspired by a picture provided by Angeil Sammys and Teddys Pawetaton 


Tom and Billy got on the subway

They were together almost every day
“But not in a Gay way!”

Billy insisted but no one believed anything Billy did say


Then they were blessed when Fat Sol fell asleep and spilled his pizza

Which they could afford because they both shared a canceled visa

Billy tried to argue he had a case of financial amnesia

For which there is an operation that without medical insurance Billy could barely cover a puff of anesthesia.


And now on the subway floor was pizza that was free

And they both realized it was dirty

But free pizza was a reason to party

And they were both typical New Yorky


But if they were seen eating pizza off the subway floor

Behavior most people abhor

A great plan was called for

But the best they could come up with was sneaking bites when the crowd moved to the door


They paused for a second wondering if subway floor pizza would make them sick

But they believed free pizza could score them a chick.

So they planned to move quick

Somewhere their parents rued the process called zygotic


When the car stopped, and people began to move, the boys dove at

The slices like a pair of hungry acrobats

When they found under the seat where Fat Dom sat

A knife-wielding New York subway pizza rat


Billy, Tom and the Pizza Rat began fighting over the pizza like big, angry sparrows

When Fat Dom woke up and knew he had to save the pizza like he was a superhero

Fat Dom climbed on the seat and leaped towards the intruders like Eddie Guerrero

When he landed the train jumped the tracks and the ambulance driver transporting them to the hospital observed it was just another day in New York’s biggest borough
