I Am Behind the Wheel

I am behind the wheel things move quickly by I feel like I ‘m being pulled along by the machine new gauges just keep coming and going around the faster I go the greater the outside winds the greater the noise garbage flies speedily by in all directions some of it hits me and sticks the outside noises are great they confuse me they cloud the music and the surroundings and overcome communications and relations I must keep the windows closed to keep out the outside noise I must try to take control of the machine slow down speed up right turn left turn never never stop I am told that I must keep going fast somewhere to succeed hands on the wheel foot on the throttle never never look back I ‘m afraid to stop how will I get where I’m going once I no where how will I find it how will I know
