Road Rage

Road Rage The sign on the road said stop and turn back But the driver is listening to his own soundtrack The noise in his head is messing up his thinking As he looks at the truck ahead whose lights are blinking He yells out the window ‘’Are you stupid or what’’ ‘’Watch what you’re doing you ignorant clot’’ When he looks back at the road it’s already too late With his foot to the floor, he meets his fate I know for I was there on that same road I was driving a truck with a heavy load The truck in his way was driven by me I kept hitting the breaks in the hope he would see The bridge up ahead had collapsed you see I did what I could as he sailed by me He saw my warnings as a hindrance to ignore Some people are like that when you knock on their door Don’t worry how they drive, but how you do instead Watch for the warning lights up ahead For some roads go nowhere and you need to resist Because those that seek to travel them will cease to exist A.Jarvis March 2012
