Bobby May Poet Free verse

Truck Drivers Lingo

Down the highway shes all lock up
Got a bear at my back door
Just dropped off in shady town
Heading down the big slab I-5
Need to get some go go juice
10-4 it was my travel agent
Just passed 32 yard stick with bull dog
He was skateboarding down the road
Drove over an alligator flipped over
My hundred mile coffee
Chicken Coop coming up
Turning on my chicken lights
Filling out my comic book
Two wheeler Evil Knievel parked on the side
Wipin her feet through the snow
Stay loaded go daddy go

" My Sons Truck"

Alexis Y. October 26, 2020 at 7:05 AM Hi Bobby, Your son truck is awesome. Thanks for sharing the truckers lingo with us. But could you translate please ? :-) Alexis Alexis Y. October 26, 2020 at 7:29 AM Thanks, I needed that:-) Alexis Bobby May October 26, 2020 at 7:16 AM LOL, go go juice is diesel, comic book is a log book, an alligator is piece of a blown tire off a truck, shady town is LA, big slab is the highway, skateboarding is a flat bed trailer, Evil Knievel are cops on motorcycles, Wipin her feet is slipping on the ice, chicken lights are marker lights on a truck, chicken Coup is a weight station, a bear is a cop, travel agent is dispatch, yardstick is a mile marker phew! LOL
