Turnpike Terror
In the asphalt sea the sharks and me
Strange multi-colored fish are we.
With a flash of red and blue in review,
a Great-White sped toward me today.
Its drab counter shaded exterior,
HOT TO CHASE.
Believing that I was its target,
A cold current of fear struck me,
And I slowed in my lane.
With a swerve of its tail and fenders
my two-ton aggressor propelled.
Its drab counter shaded exterior,
HOT TO CHASE: someone else.
Thankful that I was not its target,
A blue calm struck me,
and my migration continued.
In the asphalt sea, the sharks, and me
Strange multi-colored fish are we.
All of us weak to the shriek of sirens.
In the asphalt sea the sharks and me
Strange multi-colored fish are we.
With a flash of red and blue in review,
a Great-White sped toward me today.
Its drab counter shaded exterior,
HOT TO CHASE.
Believing that I was its target,
A cold current of fear struck me,
And I slowed in my lane.
With a swerve of its tail and fenders
my two-ton aggressor propelled.
Its drab counter shaded exterior,
HOT TO CHASE: someone else.
Thankful that I was not its target,
A blue calm struck me,
and my migration continued.
In the asphalt sea, the sharks, and me
Strange multi-colored fish are we.
All of us weak to the shriek of sirens.
