Best Passenger Poems
Conducting An Imaginary Orchestra In the Passenger Seati've seen it several times
someone motioning, flourishing
waggling, swinging, curving
hunching, moulding, stooping
pulling shapes, a twirling
a form, a delineation, shadows
fingers, tree branches, winding creeks
sometimes a head inclines
obstructing the cityscape
what are they listening to?
what are they talking about?
we've done it, we've become greenwood
sometimes a jungle
i've done it...

A PassengerA passenger opposite me
In the bus looked at me
His bare face, a rough feeling worn
How may change, with that my own
Looking at him and a small smile by my cheeks
Stagnant image sulks and my smile embarrasses
His face and mind not having deflected
Tells...

That PassengerLike the best part of a dubstep song
I feel the slip slip and drop then it's gone
Like when we got it on with a double magnum on my dong
But that was a virgin page
And with that tight cage unlocked the rat was free to rage
And...

The PassengerCity life turns to sparse assortments;
Of local pubs and country homes.
Tall brick walls fade into fences;
Amongst hedgerows and mossy stones.
Crowded bustle soon lowers its pace;
Those now free, move unconfined.
Only thoughts spent are of contentment,
Peaceful surroundings heal the mind.
As roads turn to paths unbeaten,
Dipping and...

Life Through the Passenger SeatWhen you are not on your steering wheel
You never know where your journey will take you in
Things running backwards, but the visions consumed better while you are still
You feel more clarity through the way that you have always been
Visions are pampering you through their beauty...

The Sexist Airline PassengerThe Sexist Airline Passenger
By Elton Camp
The passengers boarded for the flight
To one man it didn’t seem quite right
In the pilot’s seat a woman sat
“Hey I don’t know about that!”
“Onboard I will not remain
If a woman flies this plane.”
With utter scorn, another man said
“Get such stuff...

PassengerI am an impostor.
There was a person inside
Who felt my eyes,
And told me I wouldn’t
Make it back alive.
I am ineffective.
The autumn came through like
Trains passing underground.
I am late to the present;
I am late to the waking;
I am late to the person I was...

The PassengerPassenger of past lives,
paint thy cloth,
a lively hue,
of journeys prior,
when our skies were new,
wild, and virginal, above bucolic land,
before her windflowers were scattered,
and the fields were toiled by hand.

The Dark PassengerI have a dark passenger always with me.
All of us do actually.
Each and everyone of us has the capability
to imagine the most unimaginable darkest thoughts ever to be,
we all just tend to not indulge our dark passenger instinctively.
No one in their right mind at any...

Dear PassengerDear Passenger
Dear “Passenger Under The Train”,
Tell me, how did you get that way ?
You were a person before you travelled,
Not even a corpse now, you are bedevilled;
A passenger, to where, nobody knows,
But to the Underground, there another one goes....

Co PassengerWe sat beside each other
Wondering about the other
Looked at your hand
There was no ring
Looked at my face
There was a grin
I proposed, you disposed
We both looked the other side
You composed, I decomposed....

In the Passenger SeatNot all music soothes the soul;
I find some downright grating.
At times like those, a wish for silence
Isn’t overstating.
I’m really not a fan of rap
And opera’s not my lingo,
But rock or blues or classical
And certain jazz – well, bingo!
Yet even in my chosen genre,
Some songs...

No control,
Vehicle lurches
But I’m just a
Passenger on this
Road of life...
