WALKING WITH MY EYES CLOSED
familiar whirr of police siren
grows LARGER and LOUDER
pulling me over
i must exit the driver’s seat
h i c c u p my replies
slur a few white lies
he sure looks sharp
this young man in blue
but a bit too stern
i enter a plea of please
he shuffles his feet
this awful beast
examines my eyes and ears
blindfolded i walk the line-----------------------
i steer like a tightrope walker
my feet feel the bright white light
it leads me across state lines
trolling the line from east to west--------------------
blindsided and tipsy,
a bit giddy besides
but sooner or later i’ll find
an officer S T R A D D L E D
over me
you see….. i’ve been walking,
with my eyes closed
…but only in my mind
