I see gigantic beings...

Unaffordable, yet valiant speeding, 
tailgating, and zooming Pep Boys, I cannot dodge. 

Yours truly grief stricken

No tailgating, 
Drive not too closely behind; 
No...

Earlier in the day, dipped
into a little Thucydides,
and revived my memories of
Corinth and Corcyra.

trophies taken and lost,
innocents slaughtered handily,

Pigskin laying on our 40
And snow is hitting hard
The only warmth you feel
Roar from a heated crowd
This is not what we want

A fender bender..  which caused a dent
He was tailgating..  and that was true
Now he would  have to pay what's due
