Road of Chaos

I take my life in others hands
As I hastily enter the road I fear
Checking behind for safety at the rear 

Big trucks with blind spots
And the chaotic armies
Of wheel motioned robots

The swerving monsters
Make my nervous stomach turn
My constant darting observations
Cause my eagle eyes to burn

Vehicles cutting in
 Undertaking and overtaking
Awaken me for some speedy reflex braking

Twisting and turning 
On this roads every bend
Awaiting my fate
 As I approach end

Once I’ve left this road I fear
I’m relieved when I look behind 
For it all to just fade then disappear
