Foggy Taxi
The message of one word titles
along the way in the fog
shoppingbags in the hatch
3 towns away from where we were going
turned around
from the restaraunt with the map
and lost in the fog away we went
took us two hours before we got to the next town
2 towns away
he went the wrong way
headed out of the wrong side of the city
gas station busy
employees on the phone
bells ringing
i come in out of a taxi
and ask where am i to get to here
back in the cab
leaving the business card at the gas station
show up at a hall in the middle of nowhere
half a mile from town
fog so thick you couldn't see a thing
the changing game of names of locations
and the answer to the one worded titles soon to be riddles
get home
unpack
hang out
go to bed
confused
very confused
wake up in the morning
oh my goodness that did happen to you
foggy outside
six hours later
a village 20 minutes away from the city centre
national enquire vogue pose
kiss the scarlet ribbon
time to fix my car
or get one
and get on with the show again
