No Cars

Glistening in popcorn yellow 
or wearing a fire engine glow;

They may hold a shade of status
but that’s not all there is to us;

I’d love to travel with a poof
and never fear if we’re fireproof;

Auto repairs cost I confess;
we could reduce all of that stress,

Even to fly with metal wings,
that aerial view pulls heartstrings;

Can we be rid of that time bomb,
humanity would be more calm;

I long for a trip to the stars,
I long for a world with no cars.
