The Forest Chasing Gump

I’m running over other ones to mine. My thoughts my father taught. How black to white is harvest to wheat. How an out of line woman is kept. How I should act polite in their company kept. Dad bought a beater for me at seventeen. He’s never wrong. I love this truck more than life. I teeter with what makes it run. Keeps it going strong for what I play with friends on dusty roads on a dry summer day here in Greenbow. We shoot our pellet guns at horny toads. We chase the retard ‘round – all just to show. See what happens when born to be different? He’s running now. Far. Further, you’re present.
