Poem
I don't think we will need a map, do you? Don't let me catch you speeding on this trip. I’ve been to Oklahoma only once back when I was a little girl of six. I ran into a sticker patch barefoot, sharp sticker and bare-feet it hurt so bad, I think I may have cried for half the day and I remember some huge tumbleweeds. Did I turn off the stove after we ate? We best go back to make sure that I did we haven't gone that far, it want take long. I'd like a glass of ice-tea anyway. Did you check the back door before we left? You getting hungry, yet? I think I am! A Reuben-sandwich, I think would do fine just like the one we had in San Antonio-- last year. Remember? Downtown? The hotel, what was its name? The fancy place –you know with charming little tables and wicker chairs. I'm going to have to tinkle very soon. Oh! Did you leave my makeup on the bed? By the way, if Jill calls when we get home, I am not talking to her. She told Fran I talk too much; do you believe that Jill. Jill's mouth is just as big as my big butt! I'm thirsty and I want to get a coke. On this trip; don’t let me step in excrement like I did on our trip to New Orleans. Remember how it smelled the car all-up, I had to throw my shoes out the window, and I loved those shoes; all but for the smell. At the state line, do you think they have signs? “Welcome to Oklahoma” type of signs. If they do let me take a quick picture. It won’t take long, I promise, just one shot just to prove we were there, a bragging point, you know; something to show when we get home. Did you lock the front door? This time; I hope! I bought a new night gown, its light cobalt You’ll love it, it’s so sexy and I bought new shoes with hard thick soles -damn sticker-weeds. You see that sign back there? It looked so old, it said “Dee Dee’s Café –Five miles ahead.” Can we go back and take a quick picture? Do you think they have Reuben-sandwiches? A Dee Dee's sandwich would do me just fine. Don't we need a pit-stop to get some gas? And you are going to have to let me pee. Should you have turned back there? At that crossroad? I told you that you should have brought a map. It feel like you are driving to darn fast. Oh! STOP! -- if you see any tumbleweeds.
