Premium Member Speeding Teenager
A teenager got stopped for speeding. Said the exasperated trooper aghast: “Didn’t you see the speed limit?” he inquired? “No,” said the teen, “it sped by me too fast.” ...

Old Barn Seen from a Speeding Car
The Chevy speeds by eyesight pings it, a reflexive vision momentarily catches itself looking back. The barn is vacant, not empty, its eyes have been locked open, it bathes in sparrow and bat time. Now hollow lids capture, snatch at a headlong flight of vision. A snap of fleeting attention has stabled a glance in a timeless stall where dust hangs in a slant of suspended light. Road barn...

Car vs Bus
Car speeding, swerving as it's approaching the big, red sign. The voice in my head defies traffic laws, knowing I should stop, yet I continue on, seeking euphoria, swerving a bus. Little do I realise a cop is watching......

Premium Member Small Town Cop
Alternating red and blue, police car siren blaring. My heart is thumping wildly. I wave and blow him a kiss, But he doesn't notice. He is on the job, not caring. And since I'm driving slowly, a chance meeting I'm going to miss. Had he wings, he would be the Heavenly Angel Michael. But he is an honest cop...

Old Barnes Glimpsed From a Speeding Car
The corner of my eye notes it as my car speeds by, eyesight pings it momentarily, an image looks back. The outbuilding is vacant, bathed in a sparrow and bat time that flutters inside its hollow shell. Barn ambience has kidnapped my attention it has stabled my eyes in a timeless stall where horse tails hang suspended from broken timepieces not clocks, just pieces of time that, like dust in...

Premium Member Heavy Right Foot
Heavy Right Foot The clatter of the letter box And post on the mat Sends a shudder of fear So I cuddle the cat My hand shakes And my heart beats fast I did something wrong In the recent past I know they are coming Handcuffs and fines Cart me off For serious crimes My foot too heavy On the pedal of fun And like a speeding Bullet, out...

Premium Member It Is the Indianapolis 500
It is the Indianapolis 500, I am in the lead of course. My car has the power of more than a buggy and horse. Wait! Did that car just pass me? Racing for me is not a whim! I am irritated and peeved, so I catch up and overtake him. I hurry to not only catch up, but...

Speeding
Speeding! I didn’t do it; I swear that I didn’t. The policeman was drunk, I swear that he was. Then he tried to arrest me, and sure enough he did. I wish that I’d told him, that I was drunk instead. I imagine the fine should probably be more, But I smiled real sweetly, hoping he’d see I’m not a bad...

Dark Night Speeding
Nighttime, early morning on the freeway, I feel the need for speed, check the mirrors little traffic, no cops not even truckers. Floor it to 120. It's only a Chevy Malibu. For a moment I’m a teenager again, whooping and hollering, no fear of death, no warning lights in my freewheeling mind. Then, not too soon, the brick wall of my reality slams into a...

Officer Murphy was driving along When the traffic started to slow So he drove up the side of the road, to the front To see what impeded the flow He saw a car just crawling along And he waved it off the road Then McGee rolled down his window While Murphy was sighting a code McGee said "Wait one minute, I saw...
