Roadside

Hello, a poem for you today. Hope you dig it. Get to work on my new book and spend time with my sis today. :) It's gonna be a good day. Good morning, I'm hungry for Pop Tarts, just sayin'. Thank you for reading, everyone! C.A.

Roadside

The Jaguar is broken
down,
and in the traffic's face,
I am making
wolf eyes,
feeling the speed of machine
cheetahs,
because no honest beast slows down,
and the hot air burns any cheek,
like sun-beat bars on a steel cage,
and the closest
rest stop
is five hundred tracks away,
and I wonder
where you are killing
lunch.
