Safe Driving

So you won't renew my license
That makes absolutely no sense
You say my license is suspended
Because of violations and drivers I've offended

Even though I drive fast and reckless
I squeal the tires and do brake jobs I confess
And ignore every red light I see
For they mean nothing to me

Speed limit is how fast can I go
Always fast never slow
I'm known to change lanes in the blink of an eye
Check my mirrors? I don't even try

If I'm coming you better move fast
Get ready to run when I fly past
So why won't you give a license to me?
I've been driving safe since 1923

Hello Timothy ... in this day and age this is classed as normal driving. Well, what I mean is, when driving in the city now is almost inviting suicide. Humorous indeed Timothy - Lindsay

Today there are those far worst than you. Timothy. And they get away with it. Try lying about your age? Love the poem and the humour.
