Ways To Turn Yourself In When Road Rage Gets the Best of You

What do you see When you open your ears and hear The smell of death Descending upon the valley Quickly and methodically Choosing words to fit The description While the sketch artist Chokes them down with a Lime juice chaser. Upon completion, You see a mirror on the desk And marvel at your own eyes Gazing intently at your own Eyes. Confusion. How does one project themselves? Only I recognize me. I giggle at the self-loathing, And the pathetic detective work.

Congratulations of being featured this week. This is a very touching poem. I can see negative images of the way should no be, and beautiful ones of the way life should be. Great job! ~Joseph
