Came down to SF for an interview - I think my GPS unit is programmed to avoid toll roads - need to fix that today! I saw parts of the Bay area I don't think I've seen since I was little! On to the poem for yesterday (and yes, I'll have another offering later for today...).
Driving to the City
Three and a half hour drive
to the City
Tooling along in the fast lane
staying out of the carpool lane
Fast lane is relevant when
traffic is moving at a snail's pace
Limo driver acting like
a New York cabbie
Rush up on my bumper and expect
me to be intimidated
weaving through traffic like a drunken sailor
rush, brake, rush, brake
will you have a job tomorrow
after you made your celeb spill their drink?
Others also tailgate
to intimidate
give me a break -
I'm still in front of you!
Others slip into that
sacred space
left for safety's sake
foot off the pedal
space back in place
Such is life on the road
