Roading Poems | Examples


Roadworks

It has been my observation
While in the northbound traffic queue
That roading companies impose
Nonsense rules to make you stew

The first and most important rule
For Health and Safety regulation 
Is to put out a thousand road cones
To block (I mean aid) traffic navigation

Next, have too many roading signs
Make sure they make no logical sense
So traffic cops sense your confusion
And can charge you with an offense

Rule three is easy to remember
Wherever there is a pothole.... ignore!
Seal the road around it to guarantee
More roading contracts by the score

Rule four, watch out for road workers
As they can be an unruly mob
(I would do this out of courtesy
If only I could see someone on the job)

At last, the queue is moving now
Spraying gravel abundantly
I think this is the place for me to start
A windscreen company!

In Cider

I like to brake things
Make a mess of this
It's easier for you
To turn your back on me

Eliminate possibilities
Twist it intentionally 
Off roading any stability
Calculating probabilities

Plotting destruction
Saw the signs in your eyes
Needed to break free
Building enough crazy to see

Attachment theory
Had you thinking
I was believing
Really just controlling destiny

Found the pressure points
Leaned in, just to see
Worked out seamlessly 
Got you running far from me

Warned you I was a wolf
Even if you saw a sheep
It's ok you fell for it
They always underestimate me

It was fun you say
I stopped star gazing right away
Knew you'd inevitably fall deeply
Thought it best to implode it immediately 

Happy you think you're winning
Inside I applaud expectantly 
Knowing you'd be positioned 
Relieved you surrendered blindly

Project thirty
Phase complete
Bye bye baby
Infiltration achieved

Wind
Rocks, mud
Bugs in grill
Driver whoops, hollers
Jeep's happiness is off-roading

The Day of the Roading Days By the Moon

The day of the roaring days
	By the moon has arrived with a pregnant girl;
And the mother from the farming
	Wheat raced with rejoice
Along the road that almost finished
	With the closing eyes of the girl. 

The day of the roading days
	By the moon has a little girl,
Yet the weak moonlight as a raped friend
	Has taken over the moaning living
Of a deed and alone the racing, a runner
	Who was living below the bells.
They said it was God who was calling
	In the wilderness, almost lost.
