Emily Dickinson: Drove He Knew Haste
It was like a day like no other, a day like so many before this, college bell rang like a high school bell, a bell like so many that bother. Cornelius a friend, Bethany, his friend, Tyra her friend, then there's Schell, everybody's friend, and of course Mike, he is the driver with a bad knee. He revs the engine, repaid with stares, he backs up into a bush and bike, scars his frame, the bike is his brother gives the once over, shows that he cares. Driving hastily, Tyra then scream, Michael look on, car roll in a stream, Corn, Beth, and Ty, all in a wet dream, Whilst Mike, Schell and I, all swim downstream.
