Serious Directions
When he goes right when you say left…
His grip, headstrong - he swivels the steering wheel.
When you drive him crazy with questions,
Wondering if the old man’s batty.
If you ask him what was he thinking,
He might tell you he thought that he knew
Where he was turning, therefore
Assuring he’s not crazy at all,
Nor ignoring your directions, nor
Losing his mind. Left inside your brain,
You wouldn’t think he’s right, but he knew
Exactly what he was trying to do.
This answers years of questions —
Didn’t you hear what I said? Are you deaf?
Why don’t you ever do what I say?
He was never following siri’s* directions!
