[Leanne]

Lots to like in this piece -- I'm instantly drawn in by the casual tone and some cracking lines like "nothing stopping me but the traffic/ and there's always traffic". In that stanza, you might rethink all the -ings, perhaps:

heart beats
engine roars

instead. Also, the final line leaves me a little flat. I thought maybe "if you're not there already/ you're on your way" or something.

But there are really good bones here, I look forward to seeing what you make out of it!

and welcome
