Road Rage

honking expletives 
an irate driver 
aggressively gestures 
at my patient attitude
and the gaggle of geese 
crossing in single file…

Maybe he is behind you and doesn't see the geese. I know lots of ragers never see the whole picture. They are so crazy impatient. Good one

Hi Ilene! I've enjoyed about 30mins skimming through some of your poems, and even commented on a couple of them (I find myself nodding, smiling, grinning, laughing...) This poem was prompted by a funny candid camera video of supposedly 'senior' citizens tackling a zebra crossing! ~ Best regards // paul

Thank you Kevin, for reading and commenting. True, road rage seems to be on the increase, possibly because of stress and anger issues in a world which has become too fast for comfort. ~ Regards // paul
