Heads Up

When driving, we use WAZE, which is
A talking GPS.
It finds the quickest routes and thus
Eliminates some stress.

At times, it issues warnings
Like an "obstacle on road,"
So we'll both be on the lookout
To avoid our being towed.

But it took a while to realize 
That an "animal ahead"
Won't leap out to cause some damage;
It's already stone cold dead!

Then we saw a terrible Trump sign, Saying do not remove for it is mine, And does own, All alone; His own tower that in he will dine.

I am too old to trust technology (Gremlins and glitches find many ditches), but admire your perspective immensely! Aloha! Rico
