Tube

 Doors clatter open 

                  at Earls Court
cutting commuter fug with

a cooler kind of stuffy,
churned from

mouse shit,

                    hairballs

and

                    all that skin

sloughed off in

the regenerative miracle of human life.

We are clustered cells
in London's bloodstream
nourishing the body politic
with our own urge to survive.
