What's my alibi Mr. Man? I was held up in traffic I’m a cheap Mexican puppet Like you’ve said Twisted many times And then forgotten In lanes of nightmare My favorite song Is on the radio Every station The first time I didn’t like it Now it’s just my fav The guy behind me Would hit me If only I tapped my brakes I like power brakes For a moment I break from the pack Feels free to be 85 Cop car straddles the strings On the over pass If I ever get there I’ll test Your integrity See if you too Can hold me up [This message has been edited by wayoutwalt (edited 11-01-2000).] |

Dude...this kicks butt...I simply love that jaded side of you. Yeah, Mr. Copper, Sir, you think you can hold me up worse than that Sunday driver doing 20 below posted limit? Gotta hate those rush-hour crawls where the stations play the same damn songs over and over until you absently reach into the glove box and make the world a much happier place with the wave of a magic wand. I hear ya loud and clear, yuh yuh...This ROCKS!!!! |

I remember sitting in that gridlock prison...all the pickers digging for gold...loud radios...rude morons trying to squeeze into a space to tight for a flea...and the officer sitting on the shoulder with his ice tea...just waiting to bust someones hump when the flood gates were opened after you passed the bottlenecked exit that everyone and his aunt wanted to get off of...Thanks not for the memories...but reminding me ,I don't deal with it anymore...YUH Tossing words like wishful coins into the deep well of an open heart.

Excellent write; something better to keep one's mind occupied than sitting in traffic; or crawling along behind the stragglers!!! Good work!!! Pepper "I honor the place in you, that when you are in that place, and I am in that place in me, we are in the same place" Ram Dass |
