Poems on the Buses Exhibition

tombailey.co.uk

I tried to write a break-up poem
but I wrote this instead

We visited The Museum Museum
where all of the exhibits were exhibits about exhibits
and the dioramas featured several life-sized dioramas.

Red ropes roped off a display of red ropes.
A sign in front of a sign said
PLEASE DO NOT SIT ON THIS SIGN.

There was a guard in the corner of every room,
guarding another sadder-looking guard
who guarded nothing.

All of the paintings were about paint. I never wanted to leave.
