Peeking at his Cell Phone

disaster waiting to happen
carload of teenagers
only two have fresh licenses
little experience but lots of confidence

they are celebrating the end of another school year
being silly
thriving on youthful antics
rejoicing with loud rock music

feeling invincible
exuding enthusiasm and energy
taking sneaky peeks at their cell phones
which would have worked
if the driver had not been looking at his too
