  We investigate the equation of state (EoS) of the scalar-torsion mode in
Poincar\'{e} gauge theory of gravity. We concentrate on two cases with the
constant curvature solution and positive kinetic energy, respectively. In the
former, we find that the torsion EoS has different values in the various stages
of the universe. In particular, it behaves like the radiation (matter) EoS of
$w_r=1/3$ ($w_m=0$) in the radiation (matter) dominant epoch, while in the late
time the torsion density is supportive for the accelerating universe. In the
latter, our numerical analysis shows that in general the EoS has an asymptotic
behavior in the high redshift regime, while it could cross the phantom divide
line in the low redshift regime.
