Rear Ending
Driving in the slow lane...
Out of harms way
How can this story
Turn to decay?
First, he comes an inch to my rear
Thinking my speed will increase, rapidly
I maintain my limit, I follow the rules
So he shifts to the left, to the lane of fools
He drives right on past me
Out his window I did see
He throws up a finger
By this, I am displeased
I tried to let it go, hold I could not
The heat of my rage, grew boiling hot
So I followed the fool into mischief, I did
Hoping to spook him, god forbid
As I got to my turn upfront I did see
A small little car showed him my courtesy
Now I was him, to his rear at an inch
About to crash into his small little winch
I continued to follow, to see where he rest
I was hoping to get out, stomp him like a pest
He turned to the left but, forgot his blinker
By this, I was sure, he just took a tinker
He paved me a path, to my normal route
The the land of the great Walbridge avenue
Over the bumps and through the 'Woods'
The pest had landed, right under my hooves
I went to my mailbox, saw the monsters lair
I looked at his vehicle, gave it a stare
So I took out my mail, then wrote on my paper
"Oh, 'JKMURPHY', we'll have some fun later"
